Its the time of year to give a plug for the best nursing home advocacy group in America, The National Citizens’ Coalition for Nursing Home Reform (NCCNHR).
NCCNHR provides information on selecting a nursing home, resident’s rights, getting good care at a nursing home, family counsels, and on and on and on.
NCCNHR’s web site is full of free and valuable information. If you have a loved one in a nursing home, or anticipate the need for nursing home placement in the future, this organization’s web site should be your first source for unbiased and accurate information.
If you visit the site and find the information of value, consider joining NCCNHR. The annual dues are a bargain:
Resident ……………………………………… $2
Students/Nursing Assistants ……………..$10
Age 65 and over …………………………… $25
Other Individuals……………………………. $40
