Podcasts about nursing homes

Imagine being penalized for delivering good care to your frailest patients. Medicare's quality scoring program was built for healthy outpatients, not the elderly residents of nursing homes, but it is the system doctors who round in skilled nursing facilities are forced to play. Steve Buslovich, a physician executive and geriatrician, discusses the KevinMD article "How Medicare's MIPS impacts skilled nursing facilities and clinicians." You'll hear how MIPS metrics conflict with the five-star quality measures facilities must report, why tightly controlling A1C in frail elders can cause harm, and how documentation discrepancies between physicians and facilities create financial and legal risk for both. You'll learn which nine measures actually fit post-acute long-term care, why CMS needs frailty-based quality metrics, and how AI and synced EHRs can pull data automatically so clinicians can get back to the bedside. If you practice in or operate a nursing home, this conversation names the rules of a game you didn't choose to play. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform. With over three million monthly readers and half a million social media followers, I give you direct access to the doctors and patients who matter most. Whether you need a sponsored article, email campaign, video interview, or a spot right here on the podcast, I offer the trusted space your brand deserves to be heard.

This time on Code WACK!   Imagine being cut off from Mom - a nursing home resident - for months. You can't bring her favorite foods, or help dress her, hug her, or even hold her hand. For thousands of families during the COVID-19 pandemic, this became a heartbreaking reality. And without new laws, advocates say, it could very well happen again. That's why they are fighting to ensure our loved ones are never again separated from those they depend on most in nursing homes and other long-term care settings Today we're speaking with Tony Chicotel, senior staff attorney with California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform, or CANHR. For decades, Tony has fought to protect the rights of nursing home residents. And he says the isolation and neglect that families experienced during COVID was one of the most painful chapters of his career. This is part two of a two-part series on the Essential Caregiver's Act.  Check out the Transcript and Show Notes for more!  And please keep Code WACK! on the air with a tax-deductible donation at heal-ca.org/donate.

As America's population ages, access to long-term care is becoming an increasingly urgent issue, especially in rural communities. In this episode, Lauren sits down with Dr. Hari Sharma to discuss the growing challenge of nursing home closures in rural America and what those closures mean for patients, families, and communities. While nursing homes have always opened and closed over time, recent years have seen an overall decline in the total number of facilities nationwide, creating new concerns about access to both post-acute and long-term care services. Dr. Sharma explains how researchers measure access to care, why rural communities are particularly vulnerable when facilities close, and what happens when older adults are forced to seek care farther from home. The conversation explores the financial pressures facing nursing homes, workforce shortages, Medicaid reimbursement challenges, and the growing gap between the care rural residents need and the services available to them. The episode also examines potential solutions, including expanding home-based care, investing in assisted living and adult day programs, and reimagining how rural nursing home facilities can serve multiple community needs. Whether you're caring for aging parents, working in healthcare, or simply interested in the future of rural health, this episode offers valuable insight into a challenge that will affect more and more families in the years ahead.

When the Biden Administration announced its intent to implement a minimum staffing standard, the nursing home industry immediately responded with cries that a standard would result in closures, loss of money to nursing homes, and that the standards could not be met. These arguments, although unsupported by evidence, were effective and resulted in the current administration rescinding the staffing rule in March. Now, a new research paper shows that the implementation of state staffing standards over the years did not result in facility closures, paid for themselves, did not impact profit margins, and increased staffing levels. Join Consumer Voice's Sam Brooks who talks with Dr. Rachel Werner, one of the authors of the study, as they discuss the new paper and what it means for policymakers considering the implementation of staffing standards.

Antibiotic stewardship and infection prevention are critical in nursing homes, where residents are especially vulnerable and antibiotic overuse remains a persistent challenge. In this episode of The SHEA Podcast, host Kristy Weinshel is joined by Dr. Suzanne Bradley and Dr. Morgan Katz to discuss what nursing homes need to know to improve stewardship practices and resident safety. Together, they explore SHEA's “You Can Help! Improving Antibiotic Stewardship & Infection Prevention in Nursing Homes” program, including its practical, micro-learning approach designed for brief daily huddles. The conversation highlights how frontline staff—especially nurses and CNAs—can play a vital role in influencing antibiotic decisions, recognizing early signs of infection, and improving communication across care teams. They also address common misconceptions around urinary tract and respiratory infections, and explain how unnecessary antibiotic use contributes to multidrug-resistant organisms in long-term care settings. From early detection strategies to empowering staff engagement, this episode offers actionable insights for strengthening stewardship efforts and enhancing the quality and safety of care for nursing home residents.

March 23, 2026- We explore the health of New York's nursing homes and how they could be strengthened with Stephen Hanse, president and CEO of New York State Health Facilities Association and New York State Center for Assisted Living.

Most families assume Medicaid will cover long-term care—until it forces them to sell assets. Long-term care is one of the biggest financial threats to family farms and generational assets. In this episode of Farming Without the Bank, Mary Jo and her guest, long-term care expert Michelle Prather, break down the reality of nursing home care, Medicaid planning, and why so many families end up forced to spend down their assets just to qualify for help. They explain the difference between Medicare and Medicaid, the five-year lookback rule, and how quickly lifetime savings can disappear when care is needed. The conversation also covers how long-term care insurance works, why planning earlier dramatically lowers costs, and how some policies can provide tax-free benefits while protecting land and businesses from forced liquidation. For farmers, ranchers, and landowners, the goal isn't just retirement planning—it's making sure the farm survives the transition between generations. Without preparation, long-term care costs can quietly undo decades of work. Key Takeaways: • Why Medicare does not pay for long-term nursing home care • How the Medicaid spend-down rules can impact farms and land ownership • The 5-year Medicaid lookback rule explained • Why many families end up selling assets to qualify for care • How modern long-term care policies can provide tax-free income for care • Why buying coverage earlier dramatically lowers costs • How some policies include life insurance and cash value if care is never needed Chapters: 0:00 The Real Cost of Long-Term Care 1:40 Medicare vs Medicaid Explained 3:10 The Medicaid Spend-Down Rules 6:10 The 5-Year Lookback Rule 9:00 Why Families Lose Assets to Nursing Home Costs 12:30 The Reality of Medicaid Nursing Homes 15:20 How Long-Term Care Insurance Works 19:50 Strategies to Layer or Ladder Coverage 22:00 Using Inherited IRAs or Windfalls for LTC Planning 24:30 Life Insurance-Based Long-Term Care Policies

A few weeks ago, I was skimming this NEJM paper for UCSF's Division of Geriatrics Journal club on de-prescribing anti-hypertensive medications for older adults in nursing homes. Seemed to make a world of sense. The study found no difference between the deprescribing arm and the usual care arm in mortality, the primary study outcome. I thought, great! So we can deprescribe anti-hypertensives without changing mortality, that must be what the authors concluded. I was shocked, therefore, to read in the first paragraph of the discussion that the deprescribing arm did not achieve the hypothesized 25% reduction in mortality.  What?!?  Why would deprescribing be associated with reduced mortality? That's not the main reason or even the first reason I think of for deprescribing.  Reducing side effects that impair quality of life, sure. Less pill burden, of course.  But prolonged life?  Seemed a stretch. Today we hear from the first author of this study, Athanase Benetos, an esteemed geriatrician-researcher from France.  For context, we also interviewed Mike Steinman, co-chair of the Beers criteria and co-lead of the US Deprescribing Research Network. We learned about: Why the hypothesis of reduced mortality in deprescribing was justified, based on natural decreases in blood pressure with aging, and the Partridge study, an observational study that found higher risks of mortality associated with using multiple anti-hypertensive and low blood pressure. Why mortality was chosen as the primary outcome. Is a negative superiority study the same as what they might have found in a non-inferiority study? (stay with us) Variation in outcome by frailty status How to place this study in context with other research, such as the Danton study mentioned on a recent podcast about deprescribing near the end of life. Dantos was a study of deprescribing for nursing home residents with dementia that was stopped early due to safety concerns. Other studies for context include Sprint, Optimize, and an observational study by Bocheng Jing (UCSF statistician in our group). At the end, we ask our guests to put it together. With all that we know at this point, what's a clinician to do? To deprescribe or not to deprescribe? And, zoot alors! I get to sing Hymne A L'amour in French! Athanase recounts the moving story of how Edith Piaf sang this song the night she learned the man she loved, Marcel Cerdan, died in a plane crash. -Alex Smith
