Updated Nursing Home Care Resources Released by IQ Nursing Homes

IQ Nursing Homes has recently updated its Nursing Home Resources and is now providing information about nursing home admission, paying for long term care, and nursing home services. The IQ Nursing Homes website has been created with the goal of providing a comprehensive source of nursing home information, and this recent update marks another step in our progress toward achieving this goal.

These recent additions to the Nursing Home Resource Center address many practical concerns that individuals may face when entering a nursing home. If you are concerned about paying for nursing home care, review our webpage dedicated to this topic to learn your options. Medicare, Medicaid, long term care insurance, Medigap, and a number of other payment options are listed and explained. Learn how to prepare yourself or a loved one for admission to a nursing home, including what to bring and how to handle transfers from a hospital or another nursing home facility. Nursing homes offer a wide array of services and employ a number of different types of health care professionals to address the needs of residents. Learn about all of these services and employees in our Nursing Home Care section so that you can be sure the nursing home you choose can adequately provide the type of care you need.

In addition to these recent additions, the IQ Nursing Homes Resource Center also features a national nursing home directory, guide to choosing a nursing home, a database of nursing home and elder care facility deficiency and inspection rankings, and links to additional online government resources.

 Visit http://www.iqnursinghomes.com/ to review these new resources. You can also find up-to-date nursing home news and information about signs of elder abuse and nursing home neglect on this site.  IQ Nursing Homes offers a free nursing home abuse claim form, which will be reviewed by a qualified nursing home attorney within 36 hours. Nursing home employees who have witnessed neglect can report it anonymously.
