Researching Nursing Homes
A note by attorney Jeffrey J. Downey:
Thank you for visiting my website. Anyone who is considering the admission of a loved one into a nursing home should undertake a review of surveys or other data that will provide a snapshot of some of the issues or problems that the facility is experiencing. Keep in mind that this information can be limited and may not reflect the actual condition of the facility when your loved one is admitted. You should consider personal visits of any facility you are evaluating.
The Maryland Department of Health inspects nursing homes including the Manor Care Health Services-Silver Spring in Silver Spring, Maryland. Periodically they do inspections as complaint surveys which should be public record.
I am interested in any additional information you may have on this facility. Please call me with any question about this or any other facility you may be interested in searching or prosecuting civilly for patient neglect or abuse.
