amenity=assisted_living, because (if?) in all cases you are describing
a place where people *live* with *assistance*.

IMHO, the "cascading" style (A=B + B=C) should ONLY be used when C is
a type of B and B is a type of A. Therefore, these two options are
both valid:

amenity=assisted_living + assisted_living=orphanage, OR
amenity=assisted_living + residents=children.

I prefer the second, however, you could allow both simultaneously if
you see a need for it.
