This review is from: The Inside Guide to America's Nursing Homes: Rankings & Ratings for Every Nursing Home in the U. S., 1998-1999 (Paperback)

For those about to make the important decision of placing a loved one in a skilled nursing facility, this is an important tool. As a nursing home administrator, I know how tough it is to maintain a quality nursing home. Some succeed and some do not. As part of your preparations for this major move, read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only place I have ever seen Nursing Homes rated and ranked!, February 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Inside Guide to America's Nursing Homes: Rankings & Ratings for Every Nursing Home in the U. S., 1998-1999 (Paperback)

Great book. Mr. Bua seems to be the only person willing to tell us which nursing homes are better than others, and back up his rankings with facts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Bua's book puts an end to relying upon hearsay., December 17, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Inside Guide to America's Nursing Homes: Rankings & Ratings for Every Nursing Home in the U. S., 1998-1999 (Paperback)

The process of selecting a nursing home amongst the hundreds and perhaps thousands in a region is beyond the ability of any one person. In the past most people would rely on the good or bad things that they had hear about various facilities as the basis for their decision making. Mr. Bua's book gives the readers an idea about how to evaluate nursing homes as well as a starting point from which to begin an educated search. Philip Johnson
