I visited my elderly neighbor at a senior citizens' home which is just down the street last evening. It has been quite a few months since this lady became a resident of the home. It was after an unfortunate fall that her family decided to place her there. It would be safer for her too since there would not be anyone around to care for her during the day when everyone is out schooling or working.
This is a premier senior citizens' home in the city and the monthly rates are a little more expensive than others but my neighbor opted for this home because it's nearby and would be convenient for the family to visit her. In fact, they are able to do it every evening and on weekends.
I've never really visited a private senior citizens' home before. This home is very well equipped to care for the elderly. They have walk in tubs, non-slip mats, railings around the house, walkers and even wheel chairs.
The naive would think that the children are not doing their duty to the parent if they decided to place the parent in a home like this but in some cases it really is better for the elderly to be cared for in a home that is more conducive for them.
