Term Care. The growth of non-institutional alternatives for long-term care services such as assisted living, advances in medical technology, overall improvement in the health of potential consumers and caregivers, and increasing preference for less restrictive alternatives is generating less demand for nursing facility services. New York will pursue the rightsizing of its long-term care system; implementation of a locally-based, but state-wide point of entry (▇▇▇) system to help ensure appropriate services are rendered to recipients; a home modification program to enable recipients to stay at home; and a tele-home care program to help individuals stay healthy and at home.
