COVID‐19 Preparedness in Nursing Homes in the Midst of the Pandemic 2020-05-12 .txt text/plain 914 66 52 When asked their greatest COVID-19 preparedness concern, administrators cited lack of supplies (43%), staff shortage (34%), and resident health and safety (14%). One administrator lamented, "Not having enough PPE to keep up with a COVID-19 outbreak and sufficient staffing if staff become ill." Another noted, "Not enough available supplies for staff, such as an N-95 masks or respirators or face shields; now we are using cotton-made face masks and…sanitary pads as an additional barrier." Nevertheless, our results do indicate the need for NHs to continue refining their preparedness strategies in response to local virus prevalence, resident population, and local regulations, including state policies on accepting COVID-19 patients discharged from hospitals.
