2. Talk directly with current residents and their families about their experiences
3. Review the facility's care plans and activity calendar
4. Discuss financial options with the facility's advisors or consult an independent elder care financial planner

The best choice depends on individual care needs, budget, and preferences. This review is a starting point for your decision.
