What you can do
Questions to ask on a tour, from this record
- May I see your most recent inspection report? (Nursing homes must keep it where residents and visitors can read it.)
- How many residents does each nurse aide care for on day, evening and night shifts?
If your family member already lives here
A record like this is a reason to watch closely and ask questions, not necessarily to move — moving a frail person carries risks of its own. Raise concerns with the director of nursing first, in writing if serious. If that doesn't resolve them, call the free Long-Term Care Ombudsman (Centralina, (800) 508-5777) or file a complaint with the state (NC DHSR, 1-800-624-3004, weekdays). If someone is in danger now, call 911.
