Updated Toolkit on State Actions to Mitigate COVID-19 Prevalence in Nursing Homes

CMS is posting updates to the “Toolkit on State Actions to Mitigate COVID-19 Prevalence in Nursing Homes.” The toolkit details actions and best practices by organizations, state governments nationwide, and U.S. territories to assist nursing homes in meeting the needs of nursing home residents since the onset of the pandemic. The toolkit is updated on an ongoing basis to ensure it contains the most recent information available for providers and administrators of nursing homes to learn from an array of creative plans that state governments and other public health entities have put in place in a short period of time to contain the spread of the virus in nursing homes and meet the needs of America’s most vulnerable.
