Its quite difficult if you do not know Polish, on internet
katalog.pf.pl/Wrocław/Opieka-nad-osobami-starszymi-ośrodki-prywatne-W1 G103B321P0R10A-m14.html gives you few addresses. As in the "West" it all depends on monies - as a private person or subsidied by a goverment, secular one or one run by a Catholic organisation "Caritas", etc

The best bet would be a trip to Wroclaw and see for yourself.

Good luck

Merged: Retirement Homes near Poznan, Poland?

Long story short, my grandmother of 80 years old is going to need to live in a retirement home. Some things have happened and my mother and I can't bear to let her live alone. We're in the US and she's all the way in Poland. Does anybody know of any retirement/nursing homes in Poland. Preferably near Poznan or Pila.

Apparently the 'service' of putting old people into retirement homes is on the rise in Poland too. You can find the 'senior residences' near Poznan area here:

domyseniora.pl/poznan.html

Btw. in Poland they still call it 'dom starców' (which doesn't sound nice and is rather disrespectful). Hopefully the word 'senior' will prevail :).

dom starców

Here where I live is Dom Seniora, nice quiet place with a little disturbing, but funny older granddads - I haven't seen any grandpa - maybe they are segregated by gender?
