A member asked:
What is pro/con of nursing home in smaller town where they gather people together in lobby near nurses station much of the day? most know each other.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Therem is a con: When the nursing home gathers residents like that, for only part of the day, there is no problem, but when they are there all day, it means they are not getting individualized or group attention and this can cause behaviors, not prevent them. You want a nh that has activities and has some individual or group activities for some portion of the day.
