Flanders Nursing Home (FLANH) project: Protocol of a multicenter longitudinal observational study on staffing, work environment, rationing of care, and resident and care worker outcomes.

This study will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the nursing home context and the interrelated factors influencing residents and care workers. The findings will inform the decision-making of nursing home managers and policymakers, and evidence-based strategies to optimize quality of care and workforce planning in nursing homes.
