Dad found her through his church.
My impression from talking with her is that this is a relatively new and uncommon concept in the industry, but one that is growing.
Another big benefit is having someone who can help with the insurance companies. Thankfully that wasn't an issue with my dad, but I saw how bad it can be with my roommate when his dad went into a care home. Not just Kafka-esque but cravenly maliciously so.
