Are there any good websites for information on elderly care?

My husband's father is old and in need of 24 hour care. Some days he (the father) is completely unable to care for himself and other days he is a little competent in taking care of himself. Some siblings think he is dying and others think he is just getting old. It's a very sensitive situation watching someone get to this point in their life and we are very unprepared. Anyone know of any good websites that offer suggestions and support?
Thank you.

Here are a few on my list (I'm trying to deal with the same type of situation).
