Hello friends,
Can someone help me where I can get information about nursing homes? Actually I want to admit my mom and dad in nursing home because I’m a businessman and I don’t have time to serve my mom and dad so I want to learn about nursing homes and their facilities, costs and fees and all other services. Please let me know if you have any idea to learn about nursing homes.
Any suggestion will be highly appreciated!

Hi, It’s very good that you are trying to learn about nursing homes before placing your mom and dad. If you really want learn about nursing home I would like to refer to you a site called http://www.nursinghomecenters.org/Nursing Home Centers - Learn About Nursing Homes, Assisted Living and Other Retirement Centers where you can learn all things about nursing homes. It is one of the website on the net that provides all selective information about nursing homes. Hope this will help you.
Best of luck!

Another good reputable website is www.medicare.gov/nhcompare/home.asp. It is a medicare website that compares the nursing homes for a area and tells you how they rated. It tells you a lot of important information like, staff to patient ratio, how they scored in a bunch of areas (pneumonia vaccine rate, acquired bed sores, etc.), if they have any penalties against them when checked on by the state and if changes were made to correct the problem. This was a really good website and was pretty user friendly. Good luck!

Thank you for positng that valuable information. My Grandfather is not happy with his living situation lately and asking to be put into a nursing home. He lives with my brothers family and I'm just not sure how long it will work out.
