How do you know when it's time to put someone in a nursing home?”

An elderly patient asks his doctor, “How do you know when it's time to put someone in a nursing home?”

The doctor says, “We fill a bathtub with water and offer them a spoon, a teacup, and a bucket to empty it.”

The patient says, “And if they're mentally competent they choose the bucket?”

The doctor says, “No, if they're mentally competent they pull the plug. Would you like a bed near a window?”
