A Assembly subcommittee has criticized former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration’s response to COVID-19 in nursing homes. The report, released ahead of Gov. Cuomo’s scheduled testimony in Washington, D.C., examines the controversial March 25, 2020 order that required nursing homes to admit patients regardless of their COVID-19 status.

It’s no mystery why home care workers have such high turnover: difficult work combined with low pay, poor benefits and harsh working conditions leads to this. Home care workers, and direct care workers more broadly, are a critical part of…

State health department documents from June 2020 newly uncovered by congressional investigators appear to show the harmful effects of a controversial order requiring nursing homes to admit positive COVID-19 patients. The documents are likely to weaken, if not negate, the Cuomo administration’s long-standing argument that its March 25, 2020, order did not significantly affect the health of nursing home residents during the first wave of the pandemic.
