No Nursing Home for Us


No nursing home for us
No nursing home for us. We'll be checking into a Holiday Inn!

With the average cost for a nursing home care costing $188.00 per day, there is a better way when we get old and too feeble.
I've already checked on reservations at the Holiday Inn.
For a combined long term stay discount and senior discount, it's $59.23 per night.
note;  rates vary from location to location and season to season,  but with a little
            pre- planning  this is possible but an average rate of $82.00 is more accurate.
                You  will still be saving  $106 per day  over the nursing home......
Breakfast is included, and some have happy hours in the afternoon.
That leaves $128.77 a day for lunch and dinner in any restaurant we want, or room service, laundry, gratuities and special TV movies.
Plus, they provide a spa, swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge and washer-dryer, etc.
Most have free toothpaste and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap.
Photobucket$10 worth of tips a day you'll have the entire staff scrambling to help you.
They treat you like a customer, not a patient.
There's a city bus stop out front, and seniors ride free.
The handicap bus will also pick you up (if you fake a decent limp).
PhotobucketTo meet other nice people, call a church bus on Sundays.
PhotobucketFor a change of scenery, take the airport shuttle bus and eat at one of the nice restaurants there.
While you're at the airport, fly somewhere. Otherwise, the cash keeps building up.
It takes months to get into decent nursing homes. Holiday Inn will take your reservation today.
And you're not stuck in one place forever -- you can move from Inn to Inn, or even from city to city.
Want to see Hawaii ? They have Holiday Inn there too.
TV broken? Light bulbs need changing? Need a mattress replaced? No problem.. They fix everything, and apologize for the inconvenience.
PhotobucketThe Inn has a night security person and daily room service. The maid checks to see if you are okay. If not, they'll call an ambulance . . . or the undertaker.
If you fall and break a hip, Medicare will pay for the hip, and Holiday Inn will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of your life.
PhotobucketAnd no worries about visits from family. They will always be glad to find you, and probably check in for a few days mini-vacation.


Photobucket The grandkids can use the pool.What more could I ask
for?

So, when I reach that golden age, I'll face it with a grin...Join us at the

Holiday Inn.

Yes I accept with your statements from place to place it may vary, online bus reservation is a smart way to own tickets for an holiday trip.

Charles,
I agree with you that prices might vary...I should have added that disclaimer. LOL
