It was a wonderful networking opportunity. Nearly 50 people responded overall, and we will be forwarding information to the ones who could not attend in person. Plus, we received news coverage and a photo opportunity in an Oakland County business publication.” The centerpiece of the event was a detailed PowerPoint presentation, “Charting Nursing’s Future,” that explained how increasing the ranks of practicing nurses can impact the cost of health care in a positive way.

Discuss nursing home placement with your family so that all possibilities will be fully explored and your feelings known before a crisis occurs. The nursing home administrator, admissions director or director of social services will be able to explain arrangements for your admission to the facility. By telling the hospital which nursing homes to apply to, you or your family can influence the location of the eventual placement. Nursing homes charge a basic daily rate for the services they provide and these vary from home to home. Final responsibility for the operation of a nursing home lies with its governing body (voluntary nursing home) or owner (proprietary nursing home). They may be able to help you if your questions or concerns about a nursing home cannot be resolved by speaking with nursing home staff and administrators.
