.Reddit AMA today at 2 p.m.: Investigative reporters JaymeKFraser and LetitiaStein spent a year researching the performance of every nursing home in America during the deadliest COVID surge. Ask them anything:
, USA TODAY reporters spent a year researching which facilities had the most deaths during a deadly winter surge a year ago. We scoured data and documents and interviewed industry experts, government overseers, nursing home workers and families of the dead. In a first-of-its-kind analysis, we identified nursing home ownership webs invisible to consumers.
I’m Jayme Fraser, a data reporter on USA TODAY's investigative team, focusing on inequities. Along with Letitia Stein and Nick Penzenstadler, I spent a year researching how nursing homes performed during the deadliest surge of COVID a year ago as well as learning about ownership structures and staffing levels. When I’m not reporting, I’m watching soccer, collecting eggs from quail, crocheting beanies, or hiking with friends.
I’m Letitia Stein and I investigate failures of the health care system for USA TODAY. I’ve spent the last year investigating nursing home deaths and finances at the height of COVID-19 pandemic. I’ve previously covered everything from breaking news and battleground state politics to local schools for Reuters and the Tampa Bay Times. In my spare time, I enjoy running, especially when I can catch sunrise along the waterfront, and volunteering in my kid’s classroom.
