3.	Pneumonia (Pneumonitis) 12/01/1998 - "Nursing home residents with pneumonia, even those who are most acutely ill, can be treated successfully with intravenous therapy in the nursing home; their 30-day mortality was no different than that of those with the same acute severity of illness who were admitted to a hospital for treatment." 11/01/2002 - "Pneumonia is believed to be a serious threat to nursing home residents; PPV is thought to be important, effective, cost-effective, and safe for use in nursing homes" 02/01/1985 - "Some elderly patients with pneumonia can be effectively treated in the nursing home" 11/01/2007 - "Improved oral hygiene has been shown to reduce the occurrence of nosocomial pneumonia, both in mechanically-ventilated hospital patients and non-ventilated nursing home residents" 11/01/2006 - "A multifaceted intervention to implement guidelines improved treatment of nursing home-acquired pneumonia in a state veterans home."
