Casey Applauds New Proposed Rule Promoting Safety of Nursing Home Residents
Press Release
Issues: Senior Citizens
"Our Nation's 1.2 million nursing home residents expect and deserve high quality care that prioritizes health, safety, and human dignity.
But for too long, many nursing homes have not met this threshold due to understaffing and inadequate enforcement. This proposed rule, which both establishes staffing minimums and improves enforcement of nursing home violations, would be an important step towards ensuring that all nursing homes provide the care that all residents need and deserve."
