Florida’s 2023 Advocacy Day

March 22, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Anyone in the community is welcome to join us!

BAYADA Hearts for Home Care and other nursing providers will be hosting an Advocacy Day at the Florida State House on Thursday, March 16, 2023 in Tallahassee, Florida!

Come raise your voice to ensure families have access to the quality in-home nursing they need. Together we’ll seek legislative support for a much-needed increase to the Medicaid fee-for-service reimbursement rate for nursing services, which will be critical to addressing the ongoing nursing workforce crisis and wage disparity in the home care industry. 

In teams, you will be given the opportunity to speak with your legislators and key decision-makers to advocate for our most vulnerable Floridians who rely on home care services to remain safely in their home. These rate increases will allow us to pay our nurses better, reduce open shifts, staff more cases, and ensure our families get the care they so desperately need.  

For additional questions, please reach out to Melissa Allman, Director of Government Relations, at 704-249-8833.
