Why Do Nursing Homes Have To Be So Depressing?

I'm really sorry to hear you story. I work in the medical field and am very familiar with the nursing homes. They truly are depressing, however try to see if you can move her to an isted living facility instead as these usually are much more livelier and feel like a living community that is full of life as opposed to the average life-less nursing home. In the meanwhile, you should try to bring games that you can play with her while you are there, music and movies that she likes, and decorate the room the way she would previously decorate her home so that she and your family feel comfortable when you pay her a visit. You have my best wishes sweety!
