Title: Nursing Homes
Category: in love
Blog Entry: In all cultures the elderly have been respected and leaders of the family. It was always the place of the immediate family to care for their elderly. The primary caregiver was the mother although all of the family gave of their time and resources. Then as it became necessary for women to work outside of the home as it happened during World War II in the United States of America, women no longer had the time to care for the elderly parent or grandparent.  I think this is the reason for people turning to the nursing home.
