I don't care to move to an assisted living center. I'd rather be dead frankly.

I don't trust them. Nope.

They always ask about falls if you're older. There's a good reason for it. Ocelot II Feb 2024 #6

That's a strange and blunt opening for a health care provider. appalachiablue Feb 2024 #11

I don't understand the problem. Asking about falls is a standard question Ocelot II Feb 2024 #12
