rest homes
Elder care facilities
Rest homes are residential facilities providing care for elderly or chronically ill people who cannot live independently but don't require hospital-level medical attention.
The term often carries connotations of decline and warehousing the aged: They put Grandma in a rest home.
Nursing home and assisted living facility are related but not identical terms, with rest home now somewhat dated.
