AVAILABILITY OF DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS TEMPORARY LODGING TO CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS).

  • +Long-Term Care & Nursing Homesconfidence 0.60

    The bill's expansion of temporary lodging facilities could also benefit long-term care providers, as family members of veterans may require their services while accompanying loved ones receiving care (SEC. 2. AVAILABILITY OF DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS TEMPORARY LODGING TO CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS).
