Good luck to you and your father in this move. There will be a lot of challenges for both of you ahead. But there are many things you can do to make it for the best. i could give you a lot of advice but here are my top 3:

1. Investigate the new place carefully. Get references, spend time there, ask ??'s
2. Be involved with the move in and do everything you can to make that smooth
3. Follow up. No place is perfect. Many times the staff is underpaid and understaffed - you can help make a difference by being involved and concerned.
