Health authorities ordered the Sothornchai Nursing Home in Kanchanaburi closed after finding 129 beds against a 50-bed licence, about 4,300 sq m in use against 1,600 sq m licensed, and psychiatric patients admitted under a health-facility licence. The owner faces legal action. For care-home and clinic operators, the lesson is that beds, floor area and patient types must match the licence exactly, and restraints such as caged beds are not acceptable.
