Those who choose to start an Extended Care Unit starts from two basic assumptions. The first is that, demographically speaking, the number of elderly people, especially in Italy, is soaring. The second is the economic crisis that still has not abandoned our country and to which you must reply with alternatives. These include work in the healthcare field is definitely a great opportunity. It should also consider the fact that public solutions proposed by the State for the elderly are no longer sufficient. And that’s why the number of private and / or affiliated facilities continues to rise. However, open a residential care institution or a nursing home is not easy. We should evaluate the conditions, all the red tape and, above all, costs.
