Nursing Homes
Understanding Nursing Homes
A Nursing home is normally the highest level of care for older adults outside of a hospital. Nursing homes provide custodial care, provide help getting in and out of bed, and assistance with feeding, bathing, and dressing. However, nursing homes differ from other senior housing facilities in that they also provide a high level of medical care. As the Baby Boomer Generation is Aging, finding suitable nursing care and the right nursing care home becomes a top priority which our experts in this area of the site explore. There are currently 16,700 skilled nursing facilities in the USA. In fact, there are more skilled nursing facilities than hospitals.
Life in a nursing home is structured to provide safety and health care but also focuses on quality of life. Facilities typically offer various activities to engage residents, ranging from book clubs to Exercise classes. Choosing a facility is a significant decision. Key factors include the quality of care, staff-to-resident ratio, cleanliness, resident satisfaction, and location. Visiting potential homes and talking to residents and staff can provide valuable insights. Nursing homes are an integral part of healthcare, providing necessary care to those who need it most.
