02/15/2006 | Requests *Summary
This State Policy in Practice brief describes Indiana’s efforts to develop a new, comprehensive program that helps people in Indiana (the Hoosiers) avoid nursing home placement if possible and desirable. It also describes pilot programs to transition those who choose to enter a nursing home, but then want to return to their homes. It is intended to help state policy and program leaders, advocates, and providers learn from their peers and colleagues across the states.
