I’ve
never spent the night in a nursing home. Tonight will be a first. It is my
understanding that this facility is called a “Rehabilitation Center,” but it
has every characteristic of a nursing home.
Possibly,
that’s just a new name given to take away the icky stigma attached to the title,
“nursing home …”
Considering the outside surroundings
of this location, (barred doors and windows on the small, rundown houses;
railroad tracks and no one of my same skin color driving in the passing cars,) the
actual facility is surprisingly quite nice and impressive. It is very clean,
well decorated and smells good; which is exceptional considering the amount of
elderly people here. Not what I expected.
