Summary

Medicare and Medicaid Nursing Services Quality Improvement Act of 2001 - Directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct a demonstration project under which a resident assistant who lacks certain nurse aide training requirements may perform feeding and hydration for a resident of a skilled nursing facility under the Medicare program under title XVII of the Social Security Act (SSA), or a nursing facility under the Medicaid program under SSA title XIX, in the States of Wisconsin, North Dakota, and not more than six other select States.
