When using ground beef to make hamburger patties, be sure to select the right meat. Lean ground beef like ground sirloin or the 7% fat meat will tend to make dry burgers. Remember, when you grill a burger a lot of the fat will drain off so starting out too lean can make a dry burger.
The 1987 Nursing Home Reform Act was established to âto ensure that residents of nursing homes receive quality care that will result in their achieving or maintaining their âhighest practicableâ physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being.â It also established the Residentsâ Bill of Rights (see sidebar).
If you are or will be moving to a nursing home, you will be required to contribute most of your income to your care. You are allowed to keep a small amount of money, called a âpersonal needs allowanceâ (PNA). In 2014, Floridaâs PNA for nursing home residents is $35 per month.
