The 48th episode of our podcast, Rethink, is now available.

When the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) eased Covid-19 guidelines earlier in August, many let out a sigh of relief.

But as the nursing home industry toils its way through operational recovery amidst a staffing shortage, leaders in the space can’t help but wonder when their turn will come to lessen some of the restrictions put in place more than two and a half years ago.

That must be step one, according to Carespring CEO Chris Chirumbolo.

And Chirumbolo isn’t the only one with such concerns. Providers across the country have struggled to recruit and retain staff in nursing homes when in many other workplaces testing and masking requirements are no longer in place.

Covid continues to be an issue both in nursing homes and across the world, but both the number of hospitalizations and deaths have declined dramatically.

In this episode of Rethink, learn:

• Why Carespring has stuck to primarily building new facilities in its regional footprint

• What factors Carespring considers when considering expansion

• What the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) needs to hear from skilled nursing operators right now
