That's a hard one, at least it was for us. We got lucky that my mom briefly realized she needed to move and we got it done then.
We got some recommendations from "A Place for Mom." My mom got excellent care at Sunrise of Sunnyvale, but they don't have skilled nursing (most of the places we toured didn't). They did offer help with getting out of bed, dressing, bathing, going to the bathroom (and incontinence), meds, etc. but of course it's all extra $ and it only goes up.
Good luck when you tour facilities. It's depressing. And I recommend skipping the Memory Care area unless you want extra heartbreak.
