Is this a serious question?
Or some sort of bizarre advertisement for family-holiday tents whose low prices for large sizes suggest low quality?
The reason you give don't seem very credible anyway. Are you a nursing-home resident by illness meaning you cannot live on your own, or as a live-in member of staff?
If as a patient, living in a tent is the worst thing you could do. Especially a tent too large for one person to use safely. If resident carer, have no literally no home to go to?
Where are you going to use it? Those tents are for use on regular camp-sites.
NONE of those tents you show are suitable for one person alone in poor weather, even a young, fit healthy one.
1) They are not readily portable: you can carry them only in a car.
2) They need at least two, even three or four, people to erect.
3) They are all far too large for your suggested purpose. (Why that one claimed to accommodate 10 people?)
4) They will be very cold at night, worse still in cold weather; so you would also need proper-quality camping-mattress and sleeping-bag. If they don't have inners they will be even worse, and damp.
5) I doubt their ability to withstand severe weather. Tents like that are made solely for families or groups of friends using regular camp sites on a Summer holiday.
6) What other equipment will you need - have you considered that? How are you going to carry it all around?
.......
So the simple answer: clearly lacking camping experience, you ask about tents totally wrong for you in the situation you state. You need proper accommodation.
