I would begin by looking at the survey results of all facilities in your target area. All complaints against each facility will be listed as well along with the results of the investigation of the complaint. This will give you some insight regarding other people's experiences with the facility as well as State nursing home surveyors inspection findings. You can search facilities by county or city. Click on each faculty name and it will take you to a demographic page that outlines their licensure details along with a link to their inspection reports.
