: Kentucky Law BlogMEDICAL: Nursing home bill now 'on life support'
By Michael Stevens
The following bill to improve nursing home staffing during the day shift or first shift falls short of the mark. Why? I understand most admissions occur at the second or evening shift with dinner, showers and getting residents ready for bed stretching staffing too. Thus staffing is stretched.
Under House Bill 157, day-shift staffing would require at least one nurse's aide for every nine residents, one nurse for every 21 residents and a registered nurse supervisor for facilities with at least 75 beds.Full post as published by Kentucky Law Blog on February 07, 2010 (boomark / email).
