After my mother broke her shoulder, we had to move her to an inpatient, physical rehabilitation center/ nursing home which could take better care of her than we could while the break healed. She would get physical therapy on a regular basis, as well as nursing/medical care, which was supposed to help her heal. Though there were at least six such facilities in the area where my parents lived, most of them were full. Where she ended up, her care was so bad that her condition became worse. Her dementia progressed rapidly, much more so than it had been before her accident. She became weaker physically, and we discovered after we took her out of there that the break in her shoulder actually grew larger instead of healing. She was in constant pain the entire time.
