Planning and Preparation of Equipment List

for a Nursing Home

Nursing homes play an important role in today\'s

comprehensive health programs. Nursing homes are providing more

and better nursing care, admitting sicker patients, containing

costs in a competitive environment, and maximizing

reimbursements.

In planning and equipping a skilled nursing facility or

intermediate care facility, the administrator should determine

the equipment requirements and prepare an equipment list.

1\. Assign room numbers.

2\. Prepare a room legend sheet.

3\. Determine equipment provided by equipment contract.

4\. List major movable equipment.

5\. List minor movable equipment.

6\. Price the equipment.

7\. Total the costs by department or cost center.

8\. List building/leasehold improvements.

9\. List operating lease by department, term of lease, and

cost.

10\. Calculate the facility\'s cost for equipment and

furnishings.

The following equipment list has been developed as a general

guide for a 120-bed nursing home. The list does not purport to

establish minimum or maximum equipment requirements. The

equipment required for each nursing home will vary with the

services each facility offers. There will be variations based on

the facility design, size, operations, ownership and scope of

services rendered.

NOTE: The nursing home industry uses straight line depreciation

in determining the estimated value of the asset, based on

the useful life.
