ICYMI: Monday’s Advocacy in Action Focused on Esther’s Law Expansion

Monday’s Advocacy in Action reviewed Ohio Senate Bill 154, legislation that would expand Esther’s Law (electronic monitoring) to assisted living. A substitute version of the bill was adopted in the Senate Health Committee, and testimony from the Ohio Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman raised concerns about how the proposal could affect assisted living providers. LeadingAge Ohio also outlined next steps and potential implications for members. View the recording of Monday’s Advocacy in Action call.
