A close relative is at the end of life and we have been recommended a nursing home due to their complex needs for their last few weeks. I wondered what peoples experiences of a nursing home was with their loved ones if they experienced it? Unsure as to why it’s not a hospice as they are known to them (I think it may be not enough beds)
Hi Loco1
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I' haven't had a close relative need nursing home care, I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your relative's diagnosis into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'.
