Architecture and Design homework help. Using the Medicare Nursing Home Compare website, research one nursing home that displays a low level of quality as indicated by their Five Star Rating*
- The nursing home should display a low level of quality (-2 star rating)
- The nursing home should display a low level of safety
After thoroughly researching your nursing home on the Medicare Nursing Home Compare website, discuss their quality performance and life safety indicators. What types of deficiencies did this nursing home receive in its most recent survey? Discuss the scope and severity of these deficiencies. What would you do to correct some of these problems?
This is an opportunity for you to explore the practical application of quality research in healthcare. I encourage you to respond in first person, share personal experiences, and ask questions to further develop your understanding of quality performance and value in healthcare.

An example of a deficiency is during survey, it was noted throughout an entire day a residents foley could been seen from the hallway. This is considered a deficiency because a courtesy bag should be covering the foley.
Since I work in a nursing home, I know that in order to fix these problems, a plan of corrections must be submitted to the health department and approved. The plan of corrections will detail how the home plans to change/fix the problems and how they will prevent from this problem happening again.
