This award was from new york state heal ny phase 21, restructuring initiatives in medicaid redesign. We were required to extinguish our long term debt, which was done in 2012. The grant had several initiatives which included the downsizing of the long term care beds from 150 to 75. This was accomplished in november 2013, install a new emr/fiscal system, and create a social adult day care which was accomplished in early 2014. These initiatives will allow us to realign our campus and implement a much needed community based program.
