If you choose to move out of an institution, you or someone acting on your behalf must make a request to the locally county agency or tribe. The county will assign a case manager to visit you within 20 working days of your request and give you a list of names of relocation service coordination providers in your area.
You may also request RSC as part of a long-term care consultation (LTCC) if you are under age 65 and live in a nursing facility.
