HB 25-1184

House Bill 25-1184, also known as the Community-Based Continuing Care for Seniors bill, allows life care institutions in Colorado to offer support services like health and daily living assistance directly to seniors in their homes. This means that instead of moving into a facility, older adults can receive help staying in their own homes or other community settings while waiting for admission to a life care institution. The bill has been signed into law, so these changes are now official and institutions can start providing these services right away.

Official Summary

Under current law, life care institutions provide life and health support services to resident seniors who reside at the life care institution through the help of independent living arrangements, assisted living, or skilled nursing. The act allows life care institutions to provide community-based continuing care services to seniors in their homes and other services that benefit individuals who are awaiting admission to a life care institution. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
