abstract = "This study involved 530 nursing staff working in 25 for-profit and nonprofit nursing homes, two of which failed to meet resident care standards required for state recertification. Staff members{\textquoteright} job attitudes, opinions regarding elderly residents, and perceptions of the organization climate varied between the successful for-profit and non-profit homes. The organization climate in the failed homes was significantly different from the climate in either the successful for-profit or successful nonprofit homes.",
