Choosing a Nursing Home

Ultimately, the decision to choose a nursing home is very personal. It is a subjective decision that needs to be right for your loved one and you. MANHR has extensive experience and resources to help guide you in this decision.

Managing the Experience

Getting yourself or your loved one into a nursing home is not easy and you should feel a sense of satisfaction having accomplished that.  However, getting quality care and dignity in one’s daily life is an ongoing process and MANHR believes you should think about this as “managing the experience.”

Dealing with Challenges

Invariably, as the loved one of a nursing home resident, you will encounter issues and problems that you believe are impacting the quality of life of your loved one. MANHR has resources and perspectives to help guide this process.

Dignity Alliance Massachusetts (includes MANHR Program) is dedicated to transformative change to ensure the dignity of older adults, people with disabilities, and their caregivers. We are committed to advancing new ways of providing long-term services, support, living options, and care, while respecting choice and self-determination.
