In Australia there is a HUGE difference between a Nursing Home and a Hospice. Does the same apply in the US? A Nursing Home in Oz is where people are NURSED AND TENDED, a Hospice is where they go to die!

You are correct. It works the same way here, which is why I'm so uncomfortable with the fact that Mae is still in a hospice.
