[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nursing homes are where the elderly go to die. At least the ones where the person is confined to a room with one bed. I've never seen anyone willingly move into a nursing home.[/quote] Not true. Especially for stroke victims. Due to the incredible amount of physical assistance the paralyzed may need (usually requiring two able-bodied people) it is nearly impossible to care for them in any home-based scenario. You may also be surprised to learn that not all residents of "nursing homes" are elderly. There are usually a good percentage of younger residents, too. Like car accident victims. [/quote]
