From Stakeholder's View

Who are stake holders? 

Stakeholder is a person, group or organization that interest from or concerns a place/institution. They affect and are affected by the actions, maintenance, objectives, conditions, etc of the institution.

They include people inside as well as outside the institution.  They have the power to impact and change the strategy.

Stakeholders in St. Mary's Old Age Home

By the above explanation, all the people,  for instance, the staff, the warden, the bishop, the old women living there and visitors count as Stakeholders. 

We all affect the working if the old age home. For eg. The staff is responsible for the cleanliness, hygiene,  Etc., visitors help economically as well as emotionally and the warden, manager are responsible for the management. If any of the above donot work properly it can change the working negatively.
