You can always ask your DON for the book on the Federal Guidelines and state guidelines. That would help you alot. As mentioned before there are sites for each state. You can even look as nursing home compare if you are considering a job somewhere. It will tell you the survey history, staffing ratios. The regulations are also on these sites.

Why is there no nation-wide set of rules? Learning the different laws from state to state is a mess. Standardizing the scope of practice and "rules of engagement" might be less confusing. State laws, requirements for licensure, all confuse nurses moving to a new location.
