I guess whatever the rules for normal operation are overridden.Are they legally obligated to comply?My mother-in-law was in 2 different nursing homes and neither had sections designed for isolation.Of course. And I’ve worked in a number too as a young adult.Just wow...Where they were to be kept in isolation.DIRECTING the infected old people back into nursing homes.
The nursing homes warned Coumo that they were NOT set up to handle infectious people. They BEGGED him to change his order. He was well informed that COVID-19 was lethal to this population. This is negligent homicide and he has no protections as he was informed on multiple occasions. The state is going to have to pay big time for this..
If a nursing home can't keep people in isolation, they need to be shut down.
Have you even had a family member in a Nursing Home?
The municipality or state would have to set that up.
Did Cuomo offer such assistance?
They were given guidance on what to do.
If they want to remain in business.
That's must be some operation!Where did they place the current residents?I guess you do not understand what "SCOPE OF PRACTICE" is.... Its fundamental to all of healthcare and they must act within their licensing and scope of practice. Very few nursing homes have scope of practice regulations which allow housing of extremely contagious persons.
Most Nursing Homes work in conjunction with their City/County emergency planning department.
The County I live in had several large Nursing Homes who closed down entire wings and revented air flow specifically for CV19 overflow.
They were moved to other wings.

Because 6 feet is the typical range of droplet spread. Droplets are heavy and fall to the ground. Aerosolized particles stay suspended in the air.Negative pressure is not required for isolation of COVID patients unless they're undergoing an aerosolizing procedure.Very few nursing homes have negative presure isolation areas. They are not required under the federal regulations. Coumo knew this and still forec nursing homes to take people who were airborne virus infected and contagious. They NEVER should have left the hospitals and negative pressure containment areas.Just wow...Where they were to be kept in isolation.DIRECTING the infected old people back into nursing homes.

Coumos order killed thousands of the elderly who were most at risk of this virus.
Then why do we have to stand more than 6 feet away from each other and wear masks?
Where they were to be kept in isolation.DIRECTING the infected old people back into nursing homes.
Most nursing homes are less like a hospital and more like a dormitory with medical staff. Isolation wasn't really considered in their design and layout.
Their layout isn’t much different than most hospital wards who have been forced to adapt.
I guess whatever the rules for normal operation are overridden.
To what extent can the normal rules be overridden.
Is there a minimal amount of space required around a bed for life support equipment?

1 nursing home we used had almost 100% of patients on oxygen feeds.I guess whatever the rules for normal operation are overridden.
To what extent can the normal rules be overridden.
Is there a minimal amount of space required around a bed for life support equipment?
'Normal' rules don't get overridden.
Rules become enhanced in an emergency situation.
Life support is for critical care patients who are roomed in a hospital.
Let's be fair; that's not quite what he said.Just wow...Where they were to be kept in isolation.DIRECTING the infected old people back into nursing homes.

WTF? Nursing homes aren't for isolation. Where the heck is your head? Nursing homes are isolated? LOL!
Advanced Life Support. IE: ventilators, intubation, cardiac monitoring, etc...They were sending them back still infectious but no longer needing ALS support. They needed log term care during recovery and they were still infectious.
ALS support???
Then figure it out. It’s not like no one else has had to adapt.Where they were to be kept in isolation.DIRECTING the infected old people back into nursing homes.

Its very different from a HVAC as well as staffing perspective.
Again, they had whole temp units and a freaking ship for COVID cases, why send them to Nursing homes?
In other words they had no acute inpatient needs.Advanced Life Support. IE: ventilators, intubation, cardiac monitoring, etc...They were sending them back still infectious but no longer needing ALS support. They needed log term care during recovery and they were still infectious.

What circles? Maybe you just don’t really know what you’re talking about.Because 6 feet is the typical range of droplet spread. Droplets are heavy and fall to the ground.

wow, you really are going in circles on this one. Did Cuomo give you a reach around recently?
Actually, the fact that Coumo also sent large numbers of body bags to the nursing homes proves that he KNEW his actions would cause additional deaths, and chose to proceed with them...All Cuomo had to do was write a letter directing the infected people to go the COMFORT ship or the temporary shelters and not do something obviously insane. His actions are indefensible.Look, at the end of the day this is about money.
Nursing homes don't want to spend the money to set up isolation rooms with the appropriate equipment and staff. They want to force the hospitals to keep their residents in their hospital for the duration of their infection even though they may not require inpatient treatment. This is while the hospitals were overflowing with patients and critically short on staff and supplies. But we're supposed to keep patients sitting in beds for no other reason than it would cost the nursing home money.
In an ideal world, sure, everyone would be able to convalesce in a hospital bed, but we don't live in a perfect world. There are finite resources.
"I KNOW NUTING"!!
Remember Sgt Schultz reporting for duty.?
Two weeks ago Governor Andrew, of New York Cuomo was asked about “HIS” policy that forced nursing homes to admit patients infected with the COVID-19 virus. His response was, I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT. On Tuesday the governor was asked about a report released by “HIS” team that added over 1700 more deaths in nursing homes from the COVID -19 virus, bringing the total nursing home deaths to just shy of 5000. His response, I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT
It figures. Cuomo is an IDIOT."I KNOW NUTING"!!
