The only thing Medicare pays for is skilled nursing care - this is not extended care - but the short term convalescent care after a hospital stay. In my consulting activity I worked with these facilities to help with their Medicare billings.
These facilities are all - out of pocket expenses to the resident.

Getting old is an expensive proposition. If you have the money the other option is to leave it to your kids or someone else - you cannot take it with you. If you don't have money these places are not for you.
For a few years I worked as a consultant to nursing homes and senior living centers where the they provided care from independent living, assisted living, through to end-of life nursing care. The places I visited were upscale living centers that had fine dining, golf, and just about anything you can imagine. When I was on an assignment, instead of staying in a hotel, I generally stayed as an overnight guest in these locations. They were far nicer than a hotel.
Expensive - yes - but then again they serve a purpose, especially for those with no family and plenty of cash.

saturday, september 19th, 2015: .
earlier today snugglebunny posted a pic of today's "daily text" which is based on a paragraph from the november 15th, 2013 article.
that magazine contains the now infamous maxim: .
We each have a defining moment when deciding we cannot live this lie. Mine was when the Circuit Overseer said in a very strong voice - "we don't think we have the truth - we ... KNOW..... we have the truth."
F* this - I was out of there and never returned.
this photo was on jw-archive.. sisters are now passing microphones due to a lack of qualified brothers.
this was in a english speaking group in slovenia .
i feel sorry for the guy in the blue shirt!
I thought the bible says you cannot pass a microphone without a penis. This congregation must be really desperate to use non-penised members to do the work of the penised members.
I digress, sorry. I once remember setting in a mind-numbing elder's meeting and kept thinking that the only qualification these idiots met is that they had a penis - although in some cases I doubted this qualification.
Wow flamegrilled! you captured the essence of the new light concept.
i started working on this chart 5 years ago.
i didn't think i'd have to update it again so soon.. .
linky in case image doesn't show below.
Thank you for putting this together. It makes a very obvious point:
The light certainly is getting brighter as we move closer to the end of this wicked things. The clear implication of this chart is that we should never give up on the nearness of the end.
I, for one, have ceased buying green bananas in anticipation of the end.
i have seen posts on several you tube sites stating that jackson said during his rc testimony that jw's don't shun, celebrating christmas is not a disfellowshipping offence, birthdays are ok and ones doesn't have to agree with jw doctrine.
i have read most of the posts on other threads while and after his testimony but never read any of this?
did he really say these things or is someone on the net just stirring up some bs?.
He said what was stated in the transcript. In the interaction with the questions related to difellowshipping and disassociation Jackson was evasive and was not willing to give a straight answer. It was clear that he was attempting diminish the harsh treatment surrounding disfellowshipping.
It was a perfect example of spiritual warfare.
let's review: it's a cult!.
allrighty--got thinking about it in this thread.
isn't it odd that, of all things, that isn't on the list of df offenses?
I like the demon defense doctrine - As a famous comedian, Flip Wilson, stated - The devil made me do it.
last night i ran into a former elder friend, he is in his late 70s.
he asked how i was doing and i asked how he was doing.
then out of the blue he tells me; .
