We are pleased to announce the launch of our blog. My intent is not to advocate, but to inform. Some readers, especially the management of nursing homes, may not appreciate what I have written. I am taking the facts from Medicare Nursing Home Compare. If you want to respond in a professional matter, I encourage you to make comments. I would also be willing to post something for you. However, it must be factual. I will not post a response such as “We love the elderly and are working hard to provide good care.” I will post a response such as “We hired two more CNAs and now are staffing levels are higher.”
