*Urging HHS to
Provide Relief for Montana Senior Living Facilities*

*What's New: *
Last week, I sent a letter to U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar to provide more funding and
support for Montana's senior living facilities amid the COVID-19
pandemic through the Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund
(PHSSEF).
For more information on the letter, click *HERE [link
1]*.
*Why it Matters: *
While nursing homes in Montana and across the
country have received funding allocated from the PHSSEF to help cover
the costs associated with protecting residents and staff from COVID-19,
including testing, personal protective equipment, and staffing,
assisted living facilities have largely been left out of PHSSFF support up
to this point.
The COVID-19 pandemic has hit assisted living
facilities in Montana especially hard. A recent outbreak in a memory care
facility in Billings tragically claimed the lives of 13
residents.
*What's Next: *
I will continue working to ensure that all
communities caring for and supporting Montana's seniors receive the resources
needed to keep our most vulnerable safe during the COVID-19
pandemic.
