    You are the best judge of your needs, wants and ability to pay.

    Do web search for facilities in your area and start reviewing the services, etc.  As you find one(s) interesting make calls to ask more detailed questions, followed by visits to see how they operate in MC and their staffing.

    My mother-in-law was in Bethesda on Berry Rd, although I believe they have other locations, also. We thought her care was excellent.

    A friend was in St Louis Hills Assisted Living and Memory Care on Watson Rd. Her family was really impressed.
