(Bismarck, ND) -- Nursing home visitation limitations are being lifted in North Dakota's 218 long-term care facilities.  

New federal guidance from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services now allows visitation for all residents at all times.

Previous restrictions limited the number of people who could enter a room and some facilities shut down visitation during outbreaks.
