After COVID lockdowns, growing calls for alternatives to nursing homes in Alabama Updated 9:59 AM; Mike Curtin, 75, has lived in nursing homes for more than three years. Even in normal times, it wasn’t an ideal living situation. Almost four years ago, Curtin had surgery to remove a spinal tumor. It saved his life, but made it difficult to get around without a walker. His diagnosis requires ongoing care, and he estimates he’s had 110 appointments since his surgery, but he has friends who can shuttle him to the hospital and he manages his condition with a combination of prescriptions, herbal supplements and healthy food. Many of the other residents have late-stage dementia or require round-the-clock care.
