When selecting a nursing home, do a little research prior to deciding on a facility. Check safety and compliance records with the appointed state and local agencies that govern nursing homes. Don't depend on phone calls to provide the information you need. Tour the facilities to view the rooms, dining and recreation areas. Talk to current residence and family members. Check with the ombudsman who acts as the residence advocate for any complaints or concerns pertaining to a specific facility.
