Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An assisted-living facility would be best for Caroline as she is unable to manage cooking and cleaning on her own. Assisted living provides support with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, and meals, while still allowing residents to maintain their independence and privacy. Additionally, assisted living facilities offer a variety of social and recreational activities to enhance residents' quality of life. While a continuing-care retirement community may also be an option, it can be expensive and may not be necessary if Caroline only needs assistance with a few aspects of daily living.
