nursing homes
Assisted living places
Nursing homes are residential facilities providing long-term care for people who cannot live independently, typically the elderly or those with chronic illnesses or disabilities.
Staff provide meals, medical supervision, and assistance with daily activities.
The term often carries negative connotations of institutional bleakness: She dreaded putting her mother in a nursing home.
