Rapid Response Teams
The Department of Health and Residential Care Services has received approval and funding needed to reinstate the Rapid Response Teams for 6 months. These teams will be available around the beginning of September and will be primarily tasked with increasing capacity in SNFs that have space to admit residents, but not enough staff. This is, of course, aimed at reducing hospital census which is at crisis levels. We will keep you updated on their arrival and how to access the staffing teams
