When we went through the Assisted Living crisis with Gordon's Mom a decade ago, we discovered that there are agencies where you can look at the paperwork of each place. This was in San Jose, Ca.if, obviously a heavily populated area. Also, in Calif, you cannot be put into a locked facility without a psychiatrist's opinion. We had to have one and the Doctor called at 11 p.m.. The nurses told me he had little concept of time, always finished his day's work, no matter what the hour and they called him "The late Dr. Rappaport" My sympathies on this hard time in your lives Regards, Thea Lou Seese
