My Dad was in an extended care facility for awhile, then we had to transfer him to a private facility for another few months. In both places we were asked to provide his expensive bed pads ($22 each!) which we duly labeled with his name. They disappeared and cheap, stained ones appeared. When he was in the private facility, his wheelchair had also disappeared by the time he went home!! After Mom finally raised quite a fuss they gave her another one, but it was smaller and not as well-made.

I think the best lesson would be: Do NOT provide anything that you won't mind losing
