| NHRegsPlus serves as a one-stop location
to examine and compare the content of state regulations
related to nursing homes. It contains federal nursing
home regulations and nursing home regulations for all
states and the District of Columbia, updated as of July
2007. NHRegsPlus also contains comparative analyses of
more than 70 topics dealing with nursing home regulation in
narrative and tabular form. The narratives also contain
occasional comments, signed as NHRegs Comments,
that call attention to issues that may be relevant in
the movement towards greater individualization of
resident care and transformation of nursing home
services and environments to achieve better resident
quality of life.
Use this
location in multiple ways:
--learn about regulations governing a
particular state
--learn about how a particular topic is
handled nationwide
--consult federal regulations and related
codes
With funding from the
Hulda B. and Maurice L. Rothschild Foundation, researchers at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health created this website to make transparent the realities of state nursing home regulation.
