In this episode of HealthCap Weekly Wrap, we explore some of the most pressing updates for senior living professionals. We begin with the growing concern over measles as cases rise across the U.S. Provider groups and organizations like PALTmed are urging staff vaccinations to help protect residents in senior living communities. We also discuss new research led by Stanford Medicine and published in JAMA, which warns that measles could become endemic in the U.S. within two decades if vaccination rates decline — a reminder of how critical prevention efforts are. Next, we look at OSHA’s latest injury and illness data, which provides valuable insights into workplace safety trends that can help communities strengthen staff well-being and enhance care. We then turn to CMS’s ongoing work to combat fraud, waste, and abuse in healthcare programs, emphasizing the importance of accountability and strong internal practices. Finally, we highlight several FDA alerts regarding Smiths Medical infusion pumps, including risks of thermal damage, intermittent connections, and false alarms that could impact resident care. For more details on these stories, be sure to check out the full Weekly Round Up on Angie’s blog at healthcapusa.com/angies-blog.
