I agree that very few people are happy in Care Homes but that it because of the underlying physical and/or cognitive problems that mean they can longer care for themselves, rather than incompetent staff.

Most Homes that I've visited discourage residents from staying alone in their rooms but, in the end, it has to be their choice and you can't force people to join in activities.

Phone contact is important and some Homes are able to provide private lines in rooms, which is probably the ideal given that, in my own experience, many old people don't want to grapple with unfamiliar technology such as mobiles.
