LifeSTEPS Applauds Introduction of “Healthier Home – Age in Place Nursing Program” Legislation

LifeSTEPS thanks Assemblymember Adrin Nazarian for including “Healthier Home – Age in Place Nursing Program” in his Aging and Long-Term Care Bill Package to advance California’s historic Master Plan for Aging.

The legislation, spearheaded by LifeSTEPS and USA Properties, is modeled after a pilot program designed to provide and link health care and social services in senior affordable housing communities. In addition to improving health outcomes, enabling older adults to age in place and saving lives, our partnership with CA’s healthcare systems saved an estimated $1.1 million annually in medical costs.
