A New Tool to Help Make Choosing a Good Nursing Home Easier: Maryland 2008 Nursing Home Guide

While most Americans surveyed indicate that they would prefer to spend their entire lives residing at home, nursing homes often provide a much-needed alternative. But how do families know about which nursing homes adhere to the highest standards and residents' expectations? The Maryland Health Care Commission has made it easier to answer that question, with the publication of a recent survey of Maryland nursing homes. Marilyn Moon, chair of the Maryland Health Care Commission, and co-author of the recent survey, the 2007 Maryland Nursing Home Guide, joins me to discuss the survey's findings, and trends in eldercare.

Join me on Wednesday, February 20th, between 12:00 noon and 1:00 p.m. for the latest in stories from the Boomer File.
