Hi all,
Great news! The Aging Committee approved HB 5001, an omnibus bill that will provide further support to our seniors.
This proposal is a priority of the House, and I am thrilled it is progressing through the legislative process.
Issues impacting seniors are often ignored. Our elderly residents need support and access to resources that will provide them with the best quality of life possible. HB 5001 does this by:
- Requiring additional training of home care workers
- Creating a more efficient process for accessing Medicaid
- Expanding the Office of Long-Term Care Ombudsman
