There are lots of plays about senior citizens, but not all of them are set in retirement homes. I'll just focus on what you asked for. These are full-length plays, but you can easily pull funny scenes out of them if all you need is a short skit.

"The Gin Game": "In a retirement home, a surly man and a withdrawn woman come to terms over a game of cards. A bittersweet comedy. Funny, sad, profane, eloquent, touching, beautiful."

"A Month of Sundays": "Jason Robards, Jr. starred in this Broadway comedy about the difficulties inherent in growing old. He played a crotchety old coot named Cooper who has gone into a nursing home rather than become a burden on his family, there to flirt valiantly with the female staff, banter with the other old folks and keep a close check on his "record of physical deteriorations." On Golden Pond meets The Gin Game meets The Sunshine Boys meets Horowitz and Mrs. Washington meets I'm Not Rappaport."

Well, I know a skit. You need 3 people. They all walk in acting old and stuff, then sit down. They're laughing about how old they are. One says, "No, I'M so old, yesterday, I found myself sitting in my car in my driveway, and I couldn't remember if I was going somewhere or coming back!" They laugh. Another says, "I'M so old, the other day, I was on the stairs, halfway between, and I couldn't remember if I was going up or coming down!" They laugh. Last one says, "Man, I hope I NEVER get as old as you 2. Knock on wood!" They knock on the floor. Then pause. "Say, was that the door?"

Hope it works for you!

I do not know what is funny about the whole place smelling like pee or someone loosing their bowel.
You ever been in one of these places ?
