My dh’s ccrc suggests at least 2500 for bonuses. That is 6.87 a day, for every server and busboy and kitchen staff, plus housekeeping to tidy your room, housemen to hand deliver each delivery, drivers to the doctor and shopping.

Your facility is only asking for 3 bucks a day. The more of these services they have, the greater a bargain you are getting.

This would not happened with Mom. I was pinching pennys to keep her in the AL. 1k would have been a big chunk out of her money.

It's typical to be asked to contribute to the pool in this manner, yes. $1095 is seriously ridiculous for Independent Living, in my opinion! You should give what YOU feel to be appropriate and leave it at that.

$1095???? Wow. That seems a bit much.

Tipping individually to non-management employees who do a good job of helping your resident seems a lot more doable. It also rewards those who do a particularly good job. I'm not against paying a lump sum as they suggest, but that might turn a lot of people off and cause them not to donate at all.
