The Senior Watchdog has not always been a big fan of nursing homes. If you've been following these blogs, you've read about various horrific kinds of abuse that can happen in these places.
As it turns out, however,
some
nursing homes can actually be Great Places! Here's one of them:
The
CAMDEN CARE CENTER
in North Minneapolis, Minnesota, is an 87-bed nursing home that provides
various services
that are typical of nursing homes.
But last November, after months of
planning
, 20 Camden Care residents and 14 staffers packed up a dozen wheelchairs, a handful of walkers, and their tuxes and evening dresses, and flew to Miami, where they boarded Norwegian Cruise Line's
Majesty of the
Seas
for a four-day cruise, all expenses paid (primarily by donations)
trip to the Bahamas.
Turns out, the voyagers had a pretty good time! And they're
planning another trip
later this year.
