Dr. K talks with Dr. Karl Steinberg, an expert in nursing home care and the President-Elect of the Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine.

They discuss:

  • What we know about how COVID has affected other forms of long-term care, such as assisted-living

  • Whether some facilities may eventually divide residents into those who prioritize isolation and those who are willing to tolerate slightly increased risks in order to benefit from more socialization and activities
  • What safer “re-opening” might look like, in nursing homes
  • Why it’s essential to get information from your county and state public health department
