Nursing Homes

My friend is thinking to put her maternal grandpa in a nursing home as she thinks this is the best way for her grandpa. She is actually an orphan since she was 6, and she was upbringing by her grandpa, and now there is nobody can take care of her grandpa as she has to work too.

However, she is still in dilemma should her send her grandpa to nursing home as she has been hearing a lot of bad cases happened in nursing home. Of course, there is always had pros and cons for putting senior people in nursing home. Rather than hire a 24 hour maid to take care her grandpa, i would suggest her to send her grandpa to nursing home since the staffs in nursing home are much more well trained than those 24 hour maid. Don't you agree? At least, those well trained staffs are able to give help when comes to emergency.

Maybe she can contact BetterCaring, which the site offers a dedicated services for anyone who needs answers to crucial questions about care for old people as well as their loved one at
care homes. Hope my friend can decide well prior she sends her maternal grandpa to nursing home.
