Required next actionConfirm the applicant is an eligible Nebraska nursing home or assisted living facility, has not previously received a grant under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 81-3145, was not cited for substandard quality of care in its most recent survey, and is certified to participate in Medicare or Medicaid; develop the intergenerational child care startup or expansion plan; define requested structural modifications, outdoor improvements, child care equipment or supplies; prepare the required quality-rating and improvement-system participation plan; retrieve the current RFA and any addenda from the Nebraska DHHS Grant Opportunities page; and submit promptly because awards continue only until the $200,000 allocation is exhausted.

Broad Eligibility

The opportunity is open to nonprofit and proprietary, for-profit nursing homes and assisted living facilities operating in Nebraska. Applicants must document qualifying facility status, cannot have previously received this grant, must not have been cited for substandard quality of care during the most recent survey, must participate in Medicare or Medicaid, and must provide a plan to participate in Nebraska's quality rating and improvement system within three years after award.

Atlas Analysis

A distinctive health-and-family infrastructure opportunity linking long-term care with child care. Awards of up to $100,000 can support structural modifications, outdoor campus improvements, child care equipment and supplies needed to establish or expand intergenerational child care services. The small $200,000 statewide pool means likely few awards, so eligible nursing homes and assisted living facilities should move quickly. Atlas treats this as a long-term-care quality and community-infrastructure opportunity rather than a conventional clinical-services grant.
