I recently visited a convalescent home and was shocked to see how nice it is. I could not believe the services provided, the fun events taking place among the patients and the meals. Pillows fluffed, water fetched, slippers put on your feet - all by the nurses at the push of a button.
This seems like just the thing I need. I plan to pay out of pocket & stay at least 2 months. I went to my doctor for the appropriate arrangements and at 1st he did not understand what I was asking. Once he understood, he became angry and stated something along the line of "I will not associated with sending a 32 year old man to a convalescent home". So he is definitely not going to help me.
Looks like I have do it myself. Before I do, I'd like to know - is there any difference in rates with weeks vs. months? Even a discount as I'm 32 - my back hurts and I can't run like I used to but the nurses will not need to help me to the same degree as the older residents.
Can anyone provide me any tips?

I would purposely break a leg. They can't refuse you then.

It sounds to me like what you want is a trip to a luxury resort. Which a convelescent home is not: It is for people who have been ill and need help getting well. I can't blame the doc for getting angry.
Why don't you take the money that you want to spend on that convelescent home and take that luxury vacation instead?

Get a cope with a cruise line or quite a few cruise lines. for extra or less $one hundred an afternoon you could survive ocean liners in case you get their specials. you will possibly desire to get on and stale the ships ever 3-4-7 days, yet flow directly to the line the place the subsequent deliver is boarding. 8 nutrition an afternoon, cabin wiped clean two times an afternoon, new human beings coming near and stale (and maximum of them may even walk on my own). all the ships have swimming pools. once you die, you could shop the value of a funeral via them dumping you overboard. this could be a good purchase while in comparison with a nursing abode. Oh, in case you fall and ruin some thing, their insurance pays for a nursing abode till you're properly sufficient to come back on the deliver. happy existence.
