Ohio SB384 amends direct care staffing hour requirements for nursing homes.

Ohio SB384 modifies the rules for direct care staffing hours in nursing homes. It specifies that registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides must provide a minimum daily average of two and a half hours of direct care per resident. The bill also mandates that nursing homes offer medically related social services to residents. It excludes certain activities from the direct care staffing hour requirements, such as staff scheduling, training, and meetings unrelated to care duties.
