The Pennsylvania Department of Health helps to ensure that our residents at
The Middletown Home Skilled Nursing Facility are provided with the highest
practicable level of quality of care. They help ensure that the
regulations that have been developed for skilled nursing services are understood
and enforced throughout the state. The Department of Health comes by
minimally once a year for an annual survey which is unannounced and typically
can last 3-4 days. The administration of The Middletown Home openly
communicate with the Department of Health throughout the year so that
notifications and regulatory changes can be effectively communicated and
initiated.
Department of Health site is useful for many different things. The most
common use of the Department of Health site by long-term care consumers is the
"Find a Health Care Facility". This link on the Department of Health site
lists types of healthcare providers. If you select a health care provider,
it will then show a map of Pennsylvania with all the counties. If you
click on a particular county, it will list all of the health care provider types
that you selected for that particular county. You can then select a
particular facility survey results to see how they have done and also compare
them with other facilities that you might be considering. |
