The Senate Aging Committee held a hearing this morning, "The Long-Term Care Workforce: Addressing Shortages and Improving the Profession." The hearing focused on workforce issues across long-term care settings and served as a platform for Committee Chairman Bob Casey (D-PA) to promote S. 4120, the “Long-Term Care Workforce Support Act,” which he introduced yesterday with Senators Tim Kaine (D-VA) and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI).
