: Connecticut Medicaid & Estate PlanningConnecticut Special Focus Facility Nursing Homes 2008
By attyshea
The Special Focus Facility program is a great tool for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services as well as for consumers. I don’t image many nursing home facility administrators brag about their participation in the SFF program so this is one of those things you need to research on your own.
Connecticut had only two facilities on the most recent Special Focus Facility report. Chelsea Place Care Center is included in the list of nursing homes that have shown improvement while being a Special Focus Facility for 11 months. The Wethersfield Health Care Center is also identified as showing improvement while being in the SFF program for 37 months. Hopefully Wethersfield Health Care Center will graduate from the program soon after such a prolonged stay.
Additional information on what the Special Focus Facility program is and what it means to you as a consumer can be found here.
