Does Troast Care accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?
LARA's file does not include Alzheimer's among the populations Troast Care serves; it lists physically handicapped, aged, and traumatic brain injury.
For a resident whose memory is stable this may not matter. If it is changing, compare Troast Care with homes on the memory care list before you commit.

What should families ask Troast Care before choosing it?
Start with the state record: ask Troast Care about anything in its LARA reports, then about cost, staffing and what would force a move.
- If memory loss progresses, at what point would the home ask for a move, and how much notice is given?
- How often have rates risen over the last three years, and by how much?
- Does the licensee or a manager live in or work on site, and who covers when they are away?
