Nursing homes will provide you with the grand tour and a beautiful brochure but that is never enough.
People need to ask the hard questions and the questions that nobody ever thinks about until after the fact and then it could be too late.
This is an interesting website that asks the unusual questions but as you read through them, you'll note that they are not so unusual after all. Rather, they are just born from experience.
For instance:
Does the nursing home help residents wash their face every morning?
Does the nursing home help residents to brush their teeth?
What do the residents do between scheduled activities?
What is the procedure during a fire?
These are just a few of the questions that probably are not mentioned in that fancy brochure.
