To cope with the COVID-19 situation, in November 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services released guidelines for skilled nursing facilities to help curb the spread of the novel COVID-19 infection. These measures include physical distancing (maintain distance of 6 feet from people), wearing a face mask, and limiting the number of visitors (keeping it one at a time). Majority of these facilities were not allowed to accept new residents and did not have new revenue streams for the additional expenses associated with the virus, which had a negative impact on the skilled nursing facilities services sector.
