Speaking of which, where would one take meals? There&#8217;s no kitchen table, no living space. It&#8217;s a pretty jail on a concrete slab.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a compassionate and thoughtful idea but I think its applicability would be very limited. If a relative needed to be that close to me and were confined to bed most of the day they would also need closer monitoring than a granny cam. I would either make room for them in my home or find a suitable facility close by. Luckily I live in a community where those resources are available.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t see room for mobility appliances. I would want a direct path from kitchen to bathroom. Where is the comfy armchair and tv and\/or computer? A glass door to invite intruders, and tiny other windows, yeah, it&#8217;s a jail.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>America&#8217;s elderly population will double in just 10 years as increasing\u00a0 baby boomers hit retirement age.
