3. You can go to the Mississippi Department of Health website and find the surveys for the nursing home your loved one resides within. These surveys are listed on the website and are a valuable resource for determining what each particular nursing home has been cited for by the State of Mississippi as well as complaints made by family members that warranted investigation.
