This bill proposes to amend title 38, United States Code, by requiring the establishment of resident advocates in facilities providing domiciliary care to veterans. It specifically mandates that each Department of Veterans Affairs domiciliary facility must employ a dedicated resident advocate. These advocates will serve as a crucial liaison between veterans and the Secretary, with duties including receiving, transmitting, and responding to complaints from residents. They are also empowered to escalate complaints to the Secretary or the Department's Inspector General when deemed appropriate. For State homes providing domiciliary care, the bill stipulates that employing a resident advocate is a prerequisite for receiving federal payments. These advocates will similarly act as a liaison between veterans and the State, handling complaints and, if necessary, submitting them to the Secretary, Inspector General, or appropriate State officials.
