How placement works
Applying for long-term care

- 1A care coordinator confirms that long-term care is the right level of care and that you're eligible.
- 2You pick the homes you'd like, and your name is added to each home's waiting list.
- 3When a bed opens and you're next in line, the home offers it to you.

Attentive and caring staff for my family member. Staff knew my name and were in constant contact. The medical team assigned was top notch and worked to reduce the number of unnecessary medications my family member had been taking.
