Can I take my Mom out of a Nursing Home?

Mum went into a care home and, honestly, it has been the best thing for her.
Before she went she was confused, miserable, angry, not eating or washing although she insisted that she did everything herself including shopping, housework and gardening and refused to have any carers in. Just before she moved she did not even recognise her own home. Once she settled - which did take a few weeks - she was much better. She is calmer, more relaxed and has made friends. She has put a bit of weight back on and she is kept clean so she looks better too. I am so happy to see the way that she is cared for.

Not all experiences of care homes are bad.
