My mom told me that my insurance kaiser PM will let me goto a nursing home. What is a nursing home like for the young and sick? Is it the same as for older people? Is it really all the same? Just I will be a young patient there?

Why do you have to go into a nursing home?

It depends on the home. I would ask to visit before anything is set in stone. They vary to an extreme. Some are warm and really kind of cool, you have opportunities to meeth people who have at least something in common. Others are just awful.
