I'm not sure if this is the right place to post here, but I've noticed that many hospitals have 80+ year olds who've been in the hospital for more than 6 months. I was just wondering what the reason is for keeping them that long in the hospital? At least for geriatric care, you want them to be out as soon as possible but 6 months and more makes me wonder if the hospital is being used as a nursing home for them. I'm really curious why.
