That’s a regular price for a basic nursing home as far as I know. We paid 3500 per month (7000 for two parents) for a nursing home that looked good at first but turned out to be horrible. Due to what I would call criminal negligence they both died after 1 1/2 years.
twice the average pension and more than normal people earn a month in Germany.
I know, but that’s the effective cost. You can get financial assistance though, it depends on things like “Pflegegrad” and other factors. But still, the system is horribly broken.

Also in Germany, there is a lot of negligence in nursing homes. I also wouldn’t trust NatGeo on info about Europe anymore.
If you want a reliable source about how things are in Europe, try DW (Deutsche Welle).

Even with Pflegegeld, you often wont have enough for a nursing home.
