What do long term care leaders want lawmakers to know?

During our Congressional Briefing, we asked attendees from across the country to answer that question. Their responses highlight the dedication of caregivers, the needs of residents and patients, and the importance of policies that support access to quality care.

No one can tell the story of long term care better than the people who live it every day.

Take a listen. ⬇️

Thank you, NBC News, for highlighting what patients and care providers have experienced for years: Medicare Advantage plans are too often denying needed post-acute care.

Seniors shouldn't have to fight for benefits they've earned. It's time for accountability.

The true impact of Congressional Briefing comes from the people involved, not just the meetings.

Advocacy in Action on the Hill!

Today, part of our leadership team had the opportunity to join fellow long-term care leaders on Capitol Hill to meet with Members of Congress and discuss key issues and legislation that support the future of long-term care.

We are proud to advocate for bills that protect and enhance quality of care, support and improve access to Medicare services, and strengthen the healthcare workforce serving our aging population.

Together, we can make a difference for the communities we serve and help shape a stronger future for long-term care.
