Nursing Home Inspect App Lets Consumers Review Facility Track Records
An app known as Nursing Home Inspect has been launched with the goal of allowing users to better understand whether the nursing home they’re considering has a track record of safety. The app, which is a joint initiative between ProPublica and Digital First Media, lets people search a database of nearly 15,000 nursing homes and reports of 118,000 cited deficiencies in care. For their part, people in the nursing home industry hope that people would come in to visit a care center as opposed to relying solely on an app to make their choice.
