Are you looking for a nursing home for someone you love? With every week that passes, the task of finding the right healthcare facility becomes more difficult. The health care system in the United States is in a profound state of crisis, and looks set to grow still worse.We can no longer rely on hospitals and community workers to recommend satisfactory institutions for the final years of our senior citizens. The Crisis in America's Nursing Homes - What are we Doing Wrong? takes an objective look at the situation in today's nursing homes, and gives pragmatic advice about how to make the best of it. If you're looking for information about nursing homes today, you should make The Crisis in America's Nursing Homes - What are we Doing Wrong? your first stop. The population of America is aging. Those of us who are facing retirement and may have to go to live in a nursing home within the next 15 or 20 years face a bleak future, unless the government and the people combine forces to change things for the better. As the general population of the United States ages, so does the population of healthcare workers. Why aren't young people joining the profession? Because it's badly paid, disrespected and fraught with work-related illness and injury. And all of this at a time when hospitals are discharging the seriously ill earlier than ever before, to the subacute wards of those very same nursing homes. Understaffing mounts and, in desperation, homes are hiring nurses' aides and other basic healthcare workers without even running criminal checks. The Crisis in America's Nursing Homes - What are we Doing Wrong? helps you to understand the very real strain that nurses and other healthcare professionalsare under - and how you can co-operate with them to make your loved one's care as good as it possibly can be.
