The COVID-19 pandemic killed over 172,000 nursing home residents, leading to a major industry reform mandating that homes employ a minimum number of nurses, ensuring better care.
Consumer advocates and researchers agree that the incoming Trump administration is likely to reverse the Biden administration’s nursing home staffing regulation, as it supports the industry's interests.
Industry groups like the American Health Care Association are pushing back against the new staffing rule, citing the need for less regulation and more flexibility in staffing.
Trump's previous administration had a "patients over paperwork" ethos, expecting that it would again facilitate regulatory rollbacks and ease restrictions on nursing home operations.
