Senator Helming statement on NY’s updated nursing home visitation guidance to align with federal guidance
“Removing the 14-day COVID-free rule in particular is something I and so many families have been fighting for since the state last updated its guidance. This is welcome news that will help to reunite more seniors and families.
It is also not lost on me that this updated guidance comes a year to the day of the March 25 order requiring nursing homes to accept COVID-positive patients. We will continue to fight for justice and accountability for the more than 15,000 nursing home and long-term care residents who have died from COVID-19.”
