Look for residents—in the right places. If you see them in activity areas, dining rooms, and outdoor areas, that's good. If you see them being changed, dressed, or toileted, it means the facility doesn't value their privacy—or dignity. Also, look for restraints being used on the residents—things like wheelchair trays, vests that keep patients sitting upright, or other devices that restrict movement. Although restraints may be temporarily necessary in a medical emergency, better nursing homes work to meet residents' needs using restraint-free methods.
Things to Look For:
* Nursing home characteristics such as number of beds, type of ownership and whether or not the nursing home participates in Medicare, Medicaid or both.
* Resident characteristics including percent of residents with pressure sore, percent of residents with urinary incontinence and more.
* Summary information about nursing homes during their last State inspection.
* Information on the number of registered nurses, licensed practical or vocational nurses, and nursing assistants in each nursing home.
