My subject is about elderly nursing home

It is the only home center in the town, the oldest residents is in age 107 and the youngest is 65. They provided a good atmosphere, the food not bad, it cooked in the kitchen. It is homemade food. She is the only social worker in the agency because any agency has to have one social worker for 111 residents and the St. Joseph’s senior home has 107 residents. Most of the residents has dementia.95% of retardants had dementia. Other had other psychiatric problem but most of them had dementia.51 in the nursing home and 56 in assisting living in the St. Joseph senior home. So the total for all residents in the agency is 107 residents. The agency run by the sisters, Private home by them. The funding from the privet buy residents for the room. For the first 2 years and then they Medicaid. Most of the residents Medicaid because the keep them for many years. The most health problem they suffer is psychical problem. It deadpanning on resident’s condition. The most mantel problem is dementia because their age (+80). The services depends on individual paces or in group different, memory game or puzzle to keep them think.
