New federal staffing data paint a troubling picture for nursing home residents across the country.

LTCCC’s latest analysis of Q4 staffing data shows that many nursing homes continue to operate with dangerously low staffing levels — especially for registered nurses, the staff most critical to resident assessment, safety, and care quality.

“Federal data continue to show widespread understaffing in nursing homes across the country, despite years of promises from the industry and substantial public funding,” said Richard Mollot, LTCCC’s Executive Director. “Far too many facilities prioritize maximizing profits over basic resident care while simultaneously pushing for more taxpayer dollars and even less accountability. Seniors and families deserve safe staffing and meaningful oversight, not a system that rewards facilities with billions in public funding while tolerating chronic understaffing and substandard care.”
