Yes, same with my grandmother, my parents and my MIL.
In Switzerland they are not allowed to discriminate- the quality of care, home or room cannot be linked to your ability to pay (unless you specifically pick a 5* place in a 5* resort). At the 'home' where my parents were- the only way my dad could join my mum after a few months of being apart, was to share her already smaller room, facing north. They barely had space to move. It would infuriate dad who knew (as it was local and very small- 12 beds) - that they were probably two of the very few who were paying full whack out of savings and sale of family home. Those in the large south facing rooms with balconies were all 'state funded'. We tried our best to play this down and to turn it into a joke with him - but he was not amused.
We found a great private care home for MIL in Surrey when she began with Alzheimer's - but a couple of years later, she was so bad the Manager said she had to move into a specialised place. It was heart breaking to find a suitable place- but in the end we had to take the best of very bad - she died the night before the move. We never knew if perhaps she was aware and 'chose' to go.
But in each case, as with my maternal grandmother before that - all the money went, and we never resented that. That was not OUR money, and we had not worked or save for it.
