on one hand they are very expensive.
"slums" are $3.5-4K per month
national average is $4.5K per month
the economics are so bad that 50% of all nursing homes in FL are in bankruptcy-
now for the sharper edge of the sword-
there is a huge emotional trauma to the beloved parents that sends them into depression and they die in 1-2 years!
whereas, staying in their own home of 20-30+ years, they may live another 5-10 years!
so what does the family, adult children, want?
to keep their beloved parent as safe and comfortable such that their twilight years can be as good as they can be-
nursing homes "tend" to be dumping grounds for family members that are abandoned by their children-
hence the extraordinary means of keeping grandma at home as long as possible.
I do not see the carebot eliminating nursing homes, but putting off that incarceration as long as is possible-
those that have had direct eldercare responsibility understand the foregoing very, very well!
so tech is great from GOSY to put "family first"
