Living in a nursing

home

is very common for the elderly in Britain.

This

essay will discuss if the

should pay for

this

or if the family should be responsible for

this

expense. When someone in a family gets old there is always a doubt about who is going to take

home

, the family needs to make sure they have the money to cover all the expenses.

, the

Government

should provide help for those families.

more accessible for those who cannot
