title: Rebuilding from the rubble.
abstract: Much of the nursing home industry lies in financial ruins today, but that hasn't stopped a small but growing number of start-ups from moving in. Former executives of some of the for-profit nursing home companies that have filed for bankruptcy protection are hoping to pick up the pieces. They're using their industry expertise to launch companies backed by venture capital.
