Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. Ohio licenses assisted living as a single Residential Care Facility (RCF) type -- it does not tier the license by acuity or evacuation ability.

Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to.
