My mom has now been in a residential nursing home for about 2 months and it is definitely exceeding my expectations.  She seems happier, healthier and she is eating much better.  My mom was a standard for about 2 years before we decided to move her.  I was nervous at first but it has worked out so well that I am sorry we waited this long.  There is a dog at her new home that she has really bonded with as well too.  I would encourage anyone that has a loved one in a nursing home to look into these if they are available in your area.  They are normally private pay only but can be significantly cheaper than other options as well.  Let me know if you have any questions.

I know exactly what you mean - when I first went looking at homes it was clear to me that nursing homes (and some residential homes) are now full of people who are much further along in their journey. I think this is actually a function of the current idea of keeping people in their own homes as long as possible. I got round that by finding an extra care facility which allowed to have own flat, on site carers and fast access to the nursing home in the same grounds.
