ProPublica Launches New Program to Search and Inspect Nursing Homes

New Products & Services ProPublica is launching Nursing Home Inspect, a project that allows the public to search nursing-home deficiencies and compare them to other homes. The Evening Sun's parent company, Digital First Media, has partnered with ProPublica - a Pulitzer Prize-winning independent nonprofit newsroom- to create this program which includes nearly 118,000 deficiencies cited against 14,565 homes across the country since January 2011. Nursing Home Inspect was created so that users can search any keyword, which is a feature not available on the federal government's official nursing-home website.
