Article Abstract
We surveyed 57 nursing home residents to assess the subjective impact of COVID-19 prevention practices. Residents were mostly accepting of testing and symptom screening; however, many would like more choices. Sixty-nine percent want to have some say in when or where to mask. Most (87%) residents want to return to group activities. Residents on long-stay units (58%) are more likely than residents on short-stay units (27%) to accept additional risk of COVID-19 transmission to increase their quality of life.
