摘要
Infection preventionist (IP) staffing in nursing homes (NHs) is now required as part of new federal regulations. In this study, we examined IP staffing changes from 2014 to 2018 and found relatively few changes over time. IP staffing in NHs remains low but does vary between for profit and non-profit facilities.
