An act relating to reporting on residential care homes

This bill requires Vermont's Agency of Human Services to submit a report to the General Assembly about the need for residential care homes for people leaving hospitals who cannot safely recover at home but do not need nursing home care. The report must identify where such facilities are needed, explain how they could save money in the health care system, suggest funding sources, and recommend ways to partner with community organizations to develop these homes statewide. The legislation focuses on gathering information to guide future decisions about creating these specific types of care facilities rather than mandating their immediate construction.
