Staying involved is the most important thing you can do to keep your senior happy as they live in a nursing home. A good way to kickstart this process is by helping your loved one as they move into a nursing home facility. That way, they can note any problems to you from the beginning, and you can work to monitor them. From there, you should encourage your loved ones to build friendships and stay active. Both of these things can help your senior adjust to their new home. Further, If your loved one must now rely on you for their health care needs, you should make sure they are getting the best services possible by checking up on them regularly.
