Every Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) is required to operate within a strict set of guidelines and regulations from the Department of Health (DOH). To determine compliance, every SNF is visited unannounced by a group of DOH personnel whose responsibility includes methodical inspections of activities that may demonstrate irregularities outside of a normal SNF operations. This visit is called a "survey" or a State Inspection.

We at Catered Manor Nursing Center are very proud of our survey results and post them at each nurse's station and in the lobby next to the communication board with easy access for our residents, family members, visitors and surveyors. This information is also available for your review at the Medicare web site located at www.medicare.gov. The survey results will provide you with one tool to evaluate a nursing facility. However, since the survey is unable to measure the quality of care, we always recommend a personal visit to our facility to help you understand the dedication and mission of our staff who will be providing the day to day care to your loved one. The aroma of cookies in the oven or homemade soup is ever present from our dietary department.
