Summary View help for Summary
The 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES) Public Use Tape 5 contains data from the Facility Questionnaire Supplement, which was administered during Phase 3 (early 1988) of the Survey in Institutions, a major part of the Institutional Population Component of the NMES. The Facility Questionnaire Supplement (FQS) included questions on the existence of any special Alzheimer's units in nursing homes and characteristics of these units, such as their capacity and plans for future expansion. The FQS also included some questions on nursing homes that had been asked previously only of facilities for the mentally retarded. These questions included accreditation status of the facility and provision of training for residents.
