This article uses the Miles and Snow typology of strategies to examine nursing facilities' strategic responses to their changing environment and whether strategic responses are associated with facilities performance in quality outcomes. The author hypothesizes that prospector nursing facilities will have the highest quality outcomes, followed by defender, analyzer, and reactor facilities.
