By your same description, prison is a "fully staffed assisted living facility".
A friend's grandmother died alone, without having seen friends or family for months, shut in her room in a care facility during 2020.
I suppose you are one of the people who would also tell us that house arrest is "not hard".
My implication though was that elderly were not "isolated from any contact with people they depend on for basic survival needs" in cases where they were put in assisted living facilities, because they provide for basic survival needs.

Never implied that.
