Lamont administration receives interim report on COVID-19 in Connecticut’s long-term care facilities
The Lamont administration today announced that it has received an interim report conducted by an independent, third-party research firm reviewing the response to COVID-19 in Connecticut’s nursing homes and assisted living facilities. The report, conducted by Mathematica Policy Research, was ordered by Governor Lamont earlier this summer to provide state officials with an analysis due before the start of autumn in order to prepare for a potential second wave of the virus.
In the interim report, Mathematica makes several recommendations aimed at preparing the state and long-term care industry for a potential second wave and for reducing future infections in long-term care facilities. The recommendations are based on interviews and analysis of data from Connecticut and other comparison states.
The interim report can be read online at portal.ct.gov/Coronavirus/Long-Term-Care-Facility-review. Mathematica is due to deliver a final report to the state by the end of September.
