New Physical Plant, Service Delivery Model. In the next year or so, the City will finish construction of several new inter-connected buildings on the LHH campus to replace the aging infrastructure of the existing physical plant. The number of skilled nursing beds will be reduced from the 1,035 capacity of the existing facilities to approximately 780 skilled nursing and acute beds in the new inter-connected structure. In shifting over from the old to the new physical space, LHH will also increase its emphasis on providing services and supports, through a continuum of care model, with a focus upon enhancing community living options to help enable individuals to age in place outside of LHH. Whenever admission to the skilled nursing facility is medically necessary, LHH will work to care for and rehabilitate individuals in order to return them to the community as soon as possible and appropriate under the circumstances. To help achieve this, the City shall develop and implement specified agreed-upon measures as set forth in the United States’ letter of May 23, 2008. Overall, the measures are to be developed to enhance affected individuals’ ability to age in place in the community with appropriate services and supports.
