Today,
under the direction of President Trump, CMS released a new toolkit developed to aid nursing homes,
Governors, states, departments of health, and other agencies who provide
oversight and assistance to these facilities, with additional resources to
aid in the fight against the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic
within nursing homes. The toolkit builds upon previous actions taken by the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), which provide a wide
range of tools and guidance to states, healthcare providers and others
during the public health emergency. The toolkit is comprised of best
practices from a variety of front line health care providers, Governors’
COVID-19 task forces, associations and other organizations, and experts,
and is intended to serve as a catalogue of resources dedicated to
addressing the specific challenges facing nursing homes as they combat
COVID-19.
