Friend to Friend America Awarded CMP Grant!
We are excited to announce that we received a grant from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the state of Washington that will staff one full time person to serve in 3 local nursing homes as a video call liaison to ensure residents can connect with friends and family far and wide. The lucky homes that get to participate in this program for year one are:
- Foss Homes in Seattle
- Judson Park in Des Moines
- Burien Nursing and Rehabilitation in Burien
