NBC.com: Tonight, Dr. Nancy Snyderman offers tips on finding the right assisted living center: what to ask for in the beginning, and what to do when seeking a higher level of care. We’ve also compiled resources that may be helpful for families who want to have critical conversations with their loved ones about assisted living or end-of-life care.
The Conversation Project
