Regards direct care staffing hour requirements for nursing homes

Summary

The legislation amends Ohio’s nursing‑home rules so that time spent on scheduling, training, billing, regulatory paperwork, and facility upkeep cannot be counted toward the required daily direct‑care hours. It still requires each home to have enough staff each shift and to provide at least 2.5 hours of direct care per resident from registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, or nurse aides. The goal is to ensure resident care time is not inflated by administrative duties.
