NAELA celebrated a favorable result in
Greenhaven Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center v. Foust, which involves the nursing home residents' right to retain their home as "homestead" property after entering a nursing home. This continues the protection of the home, after nursing home admission, from the claims of creditors, who might otherwise force sale during their lifetime. Among other benefits, that may also permit protection of the home under various Medicaid provisions.
