| Annotation | The preceding article by Ann Mackay highlights the costs involved in running a care home. This article tells the other side of the story from the perspective of the author's mother - who changed from an independent retiree to a dependent resident in a nursing home. It illustrates the true cost of living when you can no longer look after yourself. An earlier version of this article was published in Working with Older People (vol 12, issue 4, December 2008). (RH). |
