What is the differnce between a Nursing Home and a Personal Care Home?
A “nursing home” provides medical and nursing care to residents. The care provided may be skilled care on a 24-hour basis by registered nurses or intermediate care on a less than 24-hour basis by licensed practical nurses, or both. A nursing home also may provide physical and speech therapy, diet supervision, and help with dressing, bathing, and medication.
