[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3450905, member: 26737"] Short term care as in a "skilled nursing facility," or as in home health care? My dad did a stint in a "skilled nursing facility" in OKC a few years ago after a bout with meningitis while he was still on an IV antibiotic. It was south of the river and west of I-35, though not by much. That place...I think I'd rather be left to die in the forest than to do any time in that place. As far as I could tell, it was mostly a place to collect souls so the Grim Reaper didn't have to run all over town--I've never seen so many people just sitting around waiting to die. It probably didn't help that their floors were painted concrete that was the color of poop. My dad wasn't thrilled with the care he got, but he wasn't entirely lucid during his stay, so that might not mean much--but my sister, who worked in nursing homes while she was in college, was livid about it, and she got him sprung and into home health care. The home health care was a [I]much[/I] better experience, and he made much better and faster progress than he did in either the hospital or Old People Storage. [/QUOTE]
