To my thinking there are two issues here:
1) health - there is a big difference between being healthy and old and unhealthy and old
2) the quality of the nursing home - my wife worked summers in a number of assisted care facilities and some of them were little more than racks to hold the dying. Others were like apartments with some added care. There is a large range inbetween.
