(USGovernment-News.Com, October 02, 2012 ) SACRAMENTO, CA – Selecting the right nursing home for family members and/or loved ones is an incredibly important decision to make. The elderly community in Sacramento is cherished by most of the locals, however, terrifying studies have indicated nursing home abuse and neglect in far too many California nursing homes. In fact, a recent study suggests that up to 90 percent of nursing homes across the country host some form of abuse and/or neglect to the elderly residents.

When making the important nursing home decision, many factors must be weighed into choosing an appropriate home that makes the elder resident feel comfortable. The nursing home staff plays an enormous role in the day-to-day activities that occur in these homes. Unfortunately, these staff members put on a happy face for visitors and behave quite differently behind closed doors.
With this in mind, ProPublica and the California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform (CANHR) are partnering in their effort to reveal the truth behind nursing homes. By compiling all of the applicable data, ProPublica and CANHR have created a selection tool that will make choosing a nursing home convenient, and more importantly, dependable.
The makers of the selection tool hope to see a decline in the rising rate of nursing home abuse in California. It is important to keep in mind, however, that even a carefully selected home can be filled with negligent staff members. As such, family members or loved ones of elderly residents must keep a close watch. If an incident has occurred, assistance from Sacramento CA abuse lawyers is imperative.
