Your Elected Officials Need to Hear from You!
Congress has many challenges
and it
is as necessary for the voice of long term care to be heard. Members of
Congress value their constituents’ opinions and it is critical that we
offer them the opportunity to
hear first-hand the quality care that we provide.
Due
to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the way we interact with Members of
Congress and their staff has drastically changed. Instead
of meeting in person, virtual platforms such as Zoom and WebEx, have
become the normal for meetings.
Now more than ever, Members of Congress and their staff need to hear from you. Each facility has been affected differently, and
your story needs to be heard.
AHCA/NCAL staff stands ready to help you engage with your Members and provide you with valuable resources. Please contact
Matt Smyth or
Angela Sargent for additional details and materials.
Host a Facility Tour
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, facility tours are currently suspended, and we are unclear as to when they will resume. Again, we
are more than willing to help you interact with your Members of Congress virtually.
Attend a Town Hall Meeting
Due
to the COVID-19 pandemic, in-person town hall meetings have been
suspended until further notice. Many Members of Congress have
moved to hosting town hall meetings virtually, through platforms such
as Zoom or on Social Media. If you are interested in finding out if your
Member of Congress is hosting a virtual town hall in the near future,
please contact
Angela Sargent.
