if people don't like the the nursing homes, please, do the taxpayers a favor and take your loved ones home......quit complaining about situations that earlier generations just accepted as part of life...
my mom took her sickly mother home to our smallish house with 6 kids and a husband/father who didn't make very much money.....she would never have even thought about dumping her mother in a facility, even though it meant hardship....
Sorry, don’t know what I said to provoke this … I was talking about doctors that give up on patients and allow them to become part of the elder care system. I have nothing against these care centers, will probably be in one soon. ;-)
