Roll Forward! Nursing homes and surveyors receive more time to prepare.

While we set our clocks up an hour last night for daylight savings time, CMS confirmed the new dates for enforcing newly revised survey guidelines for nursing homes. CMS announced today they will postpone the enforcement of recently revised nursing home guidelines, citing a delay would give nursing home staff and state survey agency staff more time for training. Initially CMS announced on January 16, 2025, enforcement would begin on March 24, 2025. Today's announcement pushes the enforcement of revised guidelines to April 28, 2025. I will post some short specifics on these newly revised guidelines later this week. Please stay tuned and have a great week!
