Much of 2025 is marked by abrupt change, while good portions of client advocacy remain focused on forcing compliance with long-standing but often violated standards. This session will give advice on representing clients in nursing facilities and assisted living facilities, including practical advice for common situations, and discussion of recent policy changes. The session will include discussion of relatively recent federal home and community-based services (HCBS) regulations that expand rights for residents of facilities reimbursed through Medicaid HCBS.
