Nursing Home Lawyers
How do you pick the right nursing home? Our attorneys get daily calls asking the very same question. As attorneys, we don’t vet every nursing home in Illinois, but we are familiar with some of the resources available to individuals seeking nursing home placement.
If you have ever attempted to look for a nursing home yourself, you know that it can seem like an impossible task finding one that fits the needs of your loved one. Families often have considerations about staffing, activities available, cleanliness, food quality and proximity to their home.

It is important to remember that a high rating does not necessarily mean that your loved one will receive good care at the nursing home and a poor score does not necessarily mean that your loved one is destined to be abused or neglected there. Do your own due diligence before choosing where to place your loved one.
The following may also be beneficial in determining the right Rockford nursing home for you or your loved one:
