That's what they's for.
Must be . I’d never force my next of kin into one of those schidt holes

Hopin ya never even hafta consider it.

People get nursing homes conflated with retirement homes.

When a patient has reached a stage where there is no treatment that will reverse the person's condition, there's no reason for them to be in a hospital.

When a person reaches that stage, there isn't a lot of life remaining for that person.

Nursing homes provide the same nursing the patient would get in the hospital, but in a less expensive setting.

The possibility of a lengthy NH stay is overstated.
