The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is the government body that oversees inspections on nursing homes and levies fines, cuts funding, and enforces corrections on homes where it finds infractions such as nursing home abuse and/or neglect.
Every year, CMS finds tens of thousands of deficiencies during nursing home inspections and levies millions of dollars in fines. Sometimes incidents of neglect or deficincies are discoverd by the families of nursing home residents. But most often nursing home neglect and abuse is uncovered during CMS inspections.
