What nursing home turnover means for quality of care

The COVID-19 vaccine rollout continues in the U.S.


Of note, the US Food and Drug Administration authorized a new
vaccine from Johnson & Johnson for emergency use. But vaccine
equity is still a concern as President Joe Biden promised a
COVID-19 vaccine for "every adult in America" by the end of May
2021.

Health Affairs' Jessica Bylander and Rob Lott meet up on Health
Affairs This Week to discuss the latest on the vaccine rollout as
well as new research on nursing home staff turnover, which was
published in the March 2021 edition of Health Affairs. The
results were recently profiled by New York Times' Reed Abelson.
