Sometimes cannot blame their family. Imagine you have a young family to take care of and need to take care of an sickly elderly. If both husband and wife working, they need to hire a maid to take care of the elderly as well as their children. If the elderly bedridden worst.
Best case is to send them to a home, at least they get some professional care. Part and parcel of live in a modern city. No cheap also to house them in a home.

You are right to say so, if the elderly is bedridden, then even with a maid, it cannot solve the problem, cos maids don't have any nurse training, only option is to leave them in a nursing home, where they may find some friends there, and have a good social life......

Unbearable sight
There is no right or wrong decisions.
One only has to bear the consequences that one makes

It is safe to put an elderly in nursing home, but the sight of them there is pathetic...
