Not completely uncertain, I suppose; they know they aren't going to have a lot of choice about what  they eat and when, or the music getting played in the dining room, or who sits next to them at lunch....So much is decided for and about nursing home residents, and they don't often have much of a say in how things are run.


Southern Cross Healthcare announced that it is planning to cut 3000 jobs from its 44,000-strong workforce. Please see the Guardian article below for a concise summary of Southern Cross' current position and plans.
