Nursing Home

Nursing homes serve a vital role in the healthcare system by providing a wide range of personal care and health services. Nursing homes provide residents with 24-hour individualized support services. The differences in needs, characteristics, circumstances, expected outcomes, and long-term status of elders residing in nursing homes requires that staff employ a variety of techniques and strategies to provide quality care and ensure the quality of life for each resident.
