New Nursing Homes Put the Emphasis on "Home"

I tour skilled cares and assisted living homes weekly and I have definitely noticed a few changes the past year. One had the warmest living room area with a fireplace and sofas and coffee and tea. another one had an amazing garden and they actually had residents helping with dividing and transplanting plants into pots - it was so peaceful. The more "homes" can steer away from the sterile medical model look the better - thanks for the warm article!

It's great to hear some good news about nursing homes and elder care. Thanks for all the great information.
