New York lawmakers mandate minimum staffing for nursing homes, hospitals

May 04, 2021 —
The New York State Legislature approved measures that will require hospitals and nursing homes to meet minimum staffing levels of nurses and other health care staff.
Measures mandating minimum staffing at health care facilities have been around for several years, but the spotlight on stressed and understaffed hospitals and nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic finally prompted the bill’s passage.
Senate sponsor and Health Committee chair Gustavo Rivera spoke before the vote.
“This is an historic moment,” said Rivera, who added that in the decade he’s held office, he’s had more meetings on the topic than any other issue.

Two highly anticipated bills that would establish safer staffing levels in both hospitals and nursing homes have now cleared the New York State Legislature with bipartisan support.
Nancy Hagans, a critical care registered nurse at Maimonides Medical Center, says this pandemic exposed what many people already knew.
“We were at a deficit to begin with,” Hagans said. “Now, we had the pandemic and as nurses, we had to do what we needed to do in order to care for our patients and save as many lives as we can. And I truly believe, and we truly believe as nurses, if we had enough staffing, if we had a nurse-patient ratio, we could have saved more lives.”

NY Lawmakers Mandate Minimum Staffing For Nursing Homes, Hospitals

WAMC's Jim Levulis speaks with AARP New York State Director Beth Finkel.
Finkel: Right now, it's got a 3.5 hourly rate [per patient]. But the CMS recommends 4.1. So we feel like New York state needs to look at the threshold that CMS has suggested for nursing homes. We're also concerned because they lump together RNs [registered nurses] and LPNs [licensed practical nurses] together in that ratio. And we know that if registered nurses are giving more services directly to the patient that the quality of care for the patient shoots way up. So we need to be looking at that.
Levulis: Now overall, have the investigations into New York's handling of COVID-19 in nursing homes, including death data, made nursing home residents and their families question the safety of the facilities and that the overall nursing home system has residents’ health and needs as the top priority?
