Many seniors will value their independence the most while others will primarily want to stay close to the family. Each combination of dynamics is unique to each elderly person, their household, and their extended family unit.

Sometimes important family dynamics play a part in the decision to go into assisted living. During this time, it will often seem that every family member has an opinion on exactly how things should be done.
