N has proposed new staffing standards aimed at enhancing care for the 1.3 million Americans in nursing homes, marking the most significant regulatory change in 30 years. However, patient advocates argue that the proposals are insufficient. The COVID pandemic highlighted severe consequences due to understaffing and low wages, resulting in many tragic outcomes, including a disproportionate impact on residents and workers. The proposed rule suggests an increase to about 3 hours of nursing care per resident daily, with 33 minutes provided by registered nurses and the remainder by nurse aides. Currently, 75% of nursing homes lack sufficient staff to meet these new minimums. David Grabowski, a healthcare policy expert, provided insights on the situation, noting there is currently no enforcement mechanism in place.
