5. Emergency Assistance

Every skilled nursing facility has an emergency medical center on hand. This ensures that medical assistance will be timely if you or a loved one are injured. The nursing facility team will also call an ambulance or transport you or your loved one to the hospital if necessary.

Even better, emergency help buttons are strategically placed throughout nursing facilities, making it simple to request assistance when needed. This feature is part of the emergency response plan, which is critical because, depending on the injury, it can save lives.

Whether it’s you or your loved one, a resident of a nursing home has a considerably higher chance of getting the help they need or surviving injuries if they are at a skilled nursing facility than if they continue to live independently.

    Your depiction of these nursing homes can only be affordable to those with the financial means.
    Due to the labor shortage and greedy nursing companies these facilities have now become dangerous.
    Not only for day to day care but the administration of medication.
    Tell the entire truth.
