Thinking About a Nursing Home?
A consumer's guide to
long term care
Pamphlet by: American Health Care
Association, Feb, 1990
Today's nursing home is for the young
and old alike. It is for convalescents
of all ages who expect to recover fully,
as well as for those in need of long
term care. The emphasis is on living.
The goal: to help patients care for
themselves and to assist them in
returning home whenever possible.
Whether you're thinking about a nursing
home for a relative, a friend, or
yourself, this guide will help you make
a wise selection. The type of facility
you select depends on the needs of the
individual. Your personal physician or
social worker is best qualified to
discuss those needs with you.
