I had to put my mother in a nursing home because home care
costs too much.
A lot more than Ivan's. She actually screamed and cried when
I called the
ambulance. I had always thought she was afraid at night.
After she was
in the nursing home 2 days she was suddenly not afraid and
happy.

I think it was due to the number of people there. The food
was not so good
but not too bad either. Since I am a retired nurse ( not
then) I know she
got very good care. I lived about 250 miles away and drove
there every
second week. She lost interest in my visits after 15-30
minutes. She had
other things to do.

I really think the patients (or residents ) attitude is the
most important
and that one person will see things differently than
another.
