GROWING OLD IN A GOOD HOME -- This article provides a thorough examination of "innovative ways for seniors to get care without going to a nursing home" (U.S. News & World Report). THE ASSISTED-LIVING DILEMMA -- This article focuses on assisted-living facilities and examines an Alabama regulation that may force many residents to transfer from their assisted-living facilities to nursing homes. "What's at stake in Alabama and other states that are imposing similar rules is the very definition--and future--of assisted living, an attractive option for many seniors who might otherwise go into a nursing home."
