Two different levels of care, both designed to keep you alive as long as possible to milk as much money as humanly possible out of you and your estate.
Assisted living are often attached to nursing homes, but assisted living typically means you can still function on your own, but maybe you get confused easily so you need someone to give your meds at the right times, and dosage, or you can no longer cook or be trusted with hot things. Typical cost here is 2K-10k a month.
Nursing homes are for when you can no longer perform advanced functions of life, but you can still eat, and poop and stuff, so where most cultures you would be taken out and shot, or allowed to die once you can no longer feed yourself, here they try to get as much money as they can from you and your estate. Typically cost here very from 6k-20K a month
