New State Law Requires Calling Senior LinkAge Line®

If so, the State Legislature recently made changes that might impact you. Before you sign a lease or housing contract, first call the Senior LinkAge Line® for long-term care options counseling. It can help you find services that meet your needs.
 

As of  Oct. 1, 2011, all people considering moving into housing with services need to call the Senior LinkAge Line^® at 1-800-333-2433 for long-term care options counseling. Housing with services includes independent living, assisted living and enhanced assisted living. At the end of the call, you will receive a verification code that signifies the completion of the counseling. You need to give this code to the tenant coordinator or housing manager at the housing setting you choose before signing the lease. You may decline the counseling, but you still need to request a code. Click on Senior LinkAge Line to learn more about this new requirement.
