Recently many nursing homes and geriatric hospitals have been supplied all over the country. But the data for planning and design of the facilities are very insufficient in Korea. So this paper aims to present the basic data for planning and design of skilled nursing homes. To do this we surveyed and analyzed 10 skilled nursing home facilities, and then present the compiled data from this analyses.
