nursing home
A nursing home is a place where elderly or disabled people are cared for in a residential setting. Other names for nursing homes include care homes, skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), and long-term care facilities. In order to indicate whether the facilities are public or private, as well as whether they primarily provide nursing care and emergency medical care, these terms frequently have slightly different meanings. People who cannot be cared for at home but do not require hospitalization use nursing homes. Depending on their rank, nursing staff at nursing homes are responsible for overseeing other staff members in addition to taking care of patient’s medical requirements. The majority of nursing homes have skilled nurses and nursing aides available round-the-clock.
- It’s possible that the assistance of close friends, family, and local programs will not suffice at some point. A residential facility that offers many or all of the necessary long-term care services may be the best option for individuals who require assistance full-time.
- Services for long-term care in a facility include: board and care homes, nursing homes, assisted living communities, and retirement communities that provide ongoing care
- While some facilities only offer housing and housekeeping, others also offer medical care and personal care. People with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia can participate in specialized programs at a lot of facilities.
