Without passing judgment on the pros and cons of nursing homes in general or any one home in particular, it is a fact of modern society that they are one answer to the care of the older person. Families and residents should be aware of the responsibilities of a nursing home so they may demand the highest standards of care. At the same time they must be aware of their own continuing responsibilities, for nursing homes are often used as dumping grounds for the unwanted or forgotten in our society. This book is written to help those who are confronted with decision about nursing home placement. It is directed toward both the families of the elderly persons entering a home and toward the elderly person involved. Although written specifically about the elderly resident, the principles are applicable to people of any age entering a nursing home.
