Clear memory-care details before you sign

Beginning November 1, 2025, any facility that advertises memory care must give a standard disclosure before you sign a care agreement. The form goes to the Health Department, the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman, and your representative. It must list staffing ratios, dementia training, fees and extra charges, care plans, transfers, building design, activities, family supports, and any certifications. The Health Department posts filed forms on a public, searchable website with a summary table, and facilities must report changes right away. Referral agencies that know of a dementia diagnosis and are helping with placement must give your representative access to each facility’s form if the Department has it, and facilities must also post the form on their website and a poster in the unit with complaint info for the Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Unit.

State checks and penalties for memory care

Beginning November 1, 2025, the Health Department reviews disclosure forms for accuracy at submission and during regular inspections. If a facility or its staff break the disclosure law or related rules, the Department can use its licensing enforcement tools, including sanctions. These checks help ensure facilities provide the dementia services they claim.

Advisory council and rules for disclosures

Beginning November 1, 2025, a nine-member advisory council helps design the disclosure form and guide implementation. Members include family representatives and serve without pay. The State Commissioner of Health also issues rules to run the program, including forms, reporting, and inspections.
