Bill > SCR110

This resolution recognizes the week of September 7-13, 2025, as National Assisted Living Week in Delaware, highlighting the important role of assisted living communities in providing long-term care for seniors and individuals with disabilities. The resolution acknowledges that residents of these facilities are active community members whose past contributions and ongoing participation enrich Delaware's identity, and emphasizes the state's commitment to quality healthcare that fosters choice, dignity, and independence. It notes the demographic changes in Delaware, with a growing population of retirees and increasing healthcare service demands, and references the National Center for Assisted Living's establishment of this commemorative week in 1995. The resolution's theme, "Ageless Adventure," celebrates residents, their families, and dedicated caregivers, and encourages citizens to engage with and learn more about long-term care facilities by visiting loved ones or participating in community activities. By passing this resolution, the Delaware General Assembly aims to recognize and support the vital role of assisted living communities in the state.
