11-B. Policy Update: Shaping the Future of Nursing Homes

Nursing homes must continuously adapt to an ever-changing landscape as they work to enhance person-centered care, improve workforce recruitment and retention, ensure financial sustainability, and tackle regulatory and operational challenges. This session will help you manage these diverse responsibilities. Representatives from the Division of Nursing Homes at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will share their insights on current regulations and guidance, workforce initiatives, technology integration, funding and reimbursement, and the survey and certification process. They’ll also assess how nursing homes meet residents’ needs and identify areas for improvement. Congressional staff have been invited to discuss legislative activity related to quality, access, and workforce recruitment. Join us to discover how you can help shape the future of nursing homes.
