LeadingAge NY Submits Comments on Proposed ALR Regulation Changes

The Department of Health (DOH) issued proposed changes to assisted living residence (ALR) regulations for public comment in April. The proposed changes implement decisions based on settlements from litigation regarding the regulations in 2010. Additionally, language is proposed to implement a law passed requiring facilities to inquire about veteran status; it should be noted that this law applies the requirement to all adult care facilities (ACFs), not just ALRs. Click here for more information and background on the proposed regulation changes.

LeadingAge NY invited comments from the membership and our business partners, given that the architectural regulations are essentially rewritten. LeadingAge NY submitted these comments on behalf of the membership.
