Plain Language Summary

# Continuous Skilled Nursing Quality Improvement Act of 2025 – Summary **What the Bill Does:** The Continuous Skilled Nursing Quality Improvement Act of 2025 is designed to improve quality standards and oversight in skilled nursing facilities (nursing homes that provide medical care). While specific details aren't available in the basic bill information, legislation with this title typically focuses on implementing ongoing quality monitoring systems, setting performance benchmarks, and establishing accountability measures for facilities that care for patients recovering from illness or injury or managing chronic conditions. **Who It Affects:** This bill would primarily affect skilled nursing facilities and the millions of Americans who receive care in these settings, including elderly patients, post-surgery patients, and those with serious medical conditions. It would also impact facility operators, healthcare providers, Medicare and Medicaid programs (which fund much of this care), and state regulators who oversee these facilities. **Current Status:** The bill (S.
