There has been so much publicity about nursing homes closing because their owners allegedly find it uneconomic to continue, it is understandable if we believe all nursing homes are personally run.
It therefore comes as surprise to learn that Four Seasons, a nursing home company with 5,000 beds, has bid £200m to take over another such company, Omega World.
Obviously the directors of the company think nursing homes are a good investment for their shareholders.
