A '''[[skilled nursing facility]]''' ('''SNF''', pronounced like the English word "sniff"), as defined by the U.S. Social Security Act, is an institution or distinct part of an institution that provides skilled nursing care to residents or physical rehabilitation care to the injured, disabled, or ill. The skilled nursing facility is primarily a designation driven by the [[Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services]] (CMS) and its associated billing. To qualify, a SNF must meet certain requirements, including considerations for quality of life, scope, assessment, and training.  
The [[chemical industry]] is comprised of numerous sectors, with no fewer than 45 different subdivisions, including glass manufacturing, petrochemical manufacturing, electronics chemicals, ceramics, and dye and pigment manufacturing to name a few.


The Federal Nursing Home Reform Act in 1987 set new requirements for nursing facilities, including the SNF. These facilities would have to emphasize quality of life and care to residents, create and assess an individual's care plan, provide the right to remain in care even after a hospital stay and the right to choose a personal physician, provide additional opportunities to residents with mental retardation or illness, and function under minimum federal standards or face even stricter penalties.

The chemical industry is comprised of numerous sectors, with no fewer than 45 different subdivisions, including glass manufacturing, petrochemical manufacturing, electronics chemicals, ceramics, and dye and pigment manufacturing to name a few.

Glass manufacturing is a process that is largely dependent on raw material quality control, as in process controls are limited by the fact that the process for manufacturing glass is high temperature, and does not lend itself to any sort of sampling process. That being said, temperature is actually a key control measure, and multivariate process control methods have been developed to maximize finished product quality. Primary petrochemicals such as ethylene, methanol, and benzene are used to produce a variety of intermediate and derivative products which ultimately are used to produce an amazing array of materials of great importance to the modern industrial world, such as plastics, tires, solvents, and the like.
