Nursing Home Transition Project 2008

- Online Registration

Do you have a resident, or maybe two, that could be better served in an alternate setting? Do you know a resident that has responded so well to living in a nursing facility that returning home should be an option but it simply has not happened due to lack of resources? Do you have a resident that this applies to that does not have a home to go back too? If any of this makes you think of any of your residents, you need to attend this program. The program will give you information on how this project started, how it will potentially affect your residents and staff and what resources are available to you to help the residents out.

The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has been awarded a Money Follows the Person (MFP) grant designed to better assist people to transition from nursing homes to community living. The DHHS contracted with the New Hampshire Independent Case Managers Association (NHICMA) in collaboration with the New Hampshire Health Care Association (NHHCA) and Granite State Independent Living (GSIL) to implement certain portions of the grant.
