Yes, then you know. I was also the sole caregiver for my older cousin (most people thought she was my mom. She was an only child.) that I had to place in Memory Care, before her death several years ago. (Mixed Vascular Dementia/Alz). I was very fortunate to find a small, family operated facility in a rural area where most staff had been there for years. They were incredible and quite unique. They have changed ownership though and I don’t know if it would be a good fit for my parents now, since my dad will need skilled nursing and not AL. I’m exploring all options.
Best of luck to you on your journey as caregiver.
