Check the record
Before you tour, read Medicare’s file.
- Every state keeps its own inspection file for nursing homes and assisted living; the state health department’s website has it, and Medicare’s record below carries the federal inspections.
- A problem inside a nursing home or adult care facility: Long Term Care Ombudsman, 1-855-582-6769. Free, confidential advocates for residents. New York State Long Term Care Ombudsman Program.
- An inspection record shows what state surveyors found on the days they visited and whether it was fixed; it cannot tell you what a Tuesday night feels like, so read it alongside a tour.
