The Nursing Home Improvement and Accountability Act of 2021

 We have to be the voce for those that sometimes can not speak for themselves. I personally do not support nursing homes placing Medicaid residents four (4) in a room! There is legislation that has been filed in the U. S. Congress that attempts to improve nursing homes. The Nursing Home Improvement and Accountability Act of 2021 , among many needed reforms, the bill calls for changes to the physical and cultural environment of nursing homes. The bill would create a demonstration project that looks at the Green House Model with a goal of improving the quality of life and allow older Americans to live with dignity, even if they can not speak for themselves.
