A New Nursing Home for My Father 父の新しい施設

My father moved into a new nursing home. 父は新しい老人ホームに移った。 He has moved around three times for three months since he got injured. 怪我をしてから3か月で３か所移った。 Since I heard that elderly people are likely to be disoriented when their environment changes,  I thought he would develop dementia, but so far he is stable. 高齢者は環境が変わると、混乱すると聞いていたので、父は認知症を発症すると思ったが、今のところ落ち着いている。 He is trying hard to adjust to new environment, which touched me. 新しい環境に慣れようと一生懸命で、私は感動している。 I realized that at any nursing homes, you are required to do things with a group while following some rules regardless you like it or not. どの施設でも、好きか嫌いかに関わらず、集団行動と規則に従うことが求められる。 Personally, I prefer to do things alone at my own pace, so if I were in a nursing home, I would feel stressed. 個人的に個人行動が好きだから、もし私が施設に入ったら、ストレスだろう。 However, I have no choice when I become unable to look after myself. しかし、自分の面倒をみられなくなってきたら、選択の余地はない。 My father spent a night yesterday for the first time at the new nursing home, so I am going to see him today. 父は昨日初めて、新しい施設で夜を過ごしたので、私は今日様子を見てくる予定だ。 I haven't been prepared enough things for him, but first of all, I would like to listen to what he wants. 彼に必要なものは十分に用意していないが、彼が何か必要なのか聞くつもりだ。
