Definitions

A nursing home is a multi-unit residential building for persons who are ill or disabled and who need constant availability of medical attention or nursing care. Patients in a nursing home are generally supervised by nurses or doctors 24 hours a day, unlike at retirement homes where medical or nursing care is available only as needed.
