Extends provisions of the long term care ombudsman to assisted living facilities

This bill extends New York's long-term care ombudsman program to cover assisted living facilities for two additional years, from December 31, 2025, through December 31, 2027. It directly affects residents of assisted living facilities in New York State by maintaining their access to the ombudsman program, which helps resolve complaints and improve care quality. The key mechanism is a simple extension of an existing program established in 2015 and updated in 2023, with no new requirements or funding changes. The bill does not create new policies but ensures continuity of current oversight for facility residents.
