Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or ConsumerFeedback@aplaceformom.com to report any complaint.

I am so sorry for your loss. Hope the good memories of your life together will bring you comfort and others who are experiencing this journey will respond ❤️
I am so sorry. My heart breaks for you. I had 12 years after my Husbands diagnosis to "prepare" and grieve and his death still shook me to my core so I can not imagine having the loss come so suddenly. I would contact your local church or place of worship and see if they have a Bereavement Support Group. You could also check with your local Senior Center and ask if they are aware of any. A quick search on google and there are some Widows Connection is one, Soaring Spirits is another. Just know that this will take time. It will hurt for a long time. People will probably not understand how or why it takes so long. You can't unless you have been in our shoes. If you need to PLEASE talk to your doctor. Therapy is an option if you can not find the "right" group for you. You need to talk, unload, vent safely. I will share with you one of the little posted notes I have stuck to my computer. I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with you... And then I realized you spent the rest of your life with me.
I do hope you have the support of family and friends now. ((hugs))
I am so sorry to hear of the sudden passing of your husband. That has to be much harder than those of us that had several years to prepare ourselves. But that being said, even though my husband was in poor health for many years, and under hospice care for the last 22 months of his life, I was still quite devastated when he finally did die a year ago this week. You think you're prepared, but in reality you never are. I'm sure you must still be in somewhat of a shock, so please be kind to yourself. You can "Google" the support group Grief Share in your area, as they are a great support group for anyone who has lost a loved one. A lot are still meeting on Zoom, but some have actually started meeting in person again. My thoughts and prayers go out to you, as you now start to navigate this new life without your dear husband. God bless you.
