In Illinois, the Illinois Department of Public Health regulates nursing homes. Representatives from this agency visit nursing homes, determine compliance, and assess fines, if a nursing home fails to abide by state regulations. In 2014, the Illinois Department of Public Health assessed fines in excess of $2,000,000.00 on Illinois nursing homes.
