NURSING HOME COVID-19 OUTBREAKS EXPOSE INADEQUACIES IN INFECTION CONTROL PRACTICES
For months, we have seen that nursing home facilities have been among the most vulnerable to the virus's fast and dangerous spread.
Infrastructure shortfalls and previous violations are partially to blame. Still, the media has not let up when it comes to putting long-term healthcare under a microscope, and the consequences have been costly.
CHUG UPDATES: This year has been full of uncertainty and bravery in the face of the pandemic and these unprecedented times, CHUG wants to extend our sincerest gratitude to healthcare workers this Thanksgiving.
