This directive is intended to heighten awareness among residents and their families as
to the availability of certain compliance information maintained by the NYS Department
of Health (NYSDOH) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicare Services (CMS) with
regards to residential health facilities.
Both the NYSDOH and CMS maintain information on nursing homes that includes
performance on quality measures, complaints, inspection results, and citations and
enforcement actions, as well as any penalties imposed on the nursing home. CMS has
created a tool called Care Compare to help consumers search for and select nursing
homes and other health care providers and the NYS DOH maintains a web site
called Nursing Home Profiles.
According to CMS, the information it maintains on nursing homes should be used with
other information you gather about providers and facilities in your area. In addition to
reviewing the Care Compare information, you should talk to your doctor, social worker,
or other health care providers when choosing a provider. Additional tips for selecting a
nursing home can be found in CMS's guide to selecting a nursing
home: https://www.medicare.qov/care-compare/en/assets/resources/nursinqhome/

Region/County from the dropdown menu, and open the Inspections tab to view any
