Abstract
The Special Investigations Division of the House Committee on Government Reform investigated the conditions of nursing homes in California's 13th Congressional District to determine if they complied with federal law. It was discovered that 86% of nursing homes in California's 13th district did not meet the US Department of Health and Human Services prefered minimum staffing level and 68% of these were cited for violations that caused actual harm to residents. Moreover, the report found that inadequate staffing was correlated with poor conditions in nursing homes
