As stated in a previous South Dakota Association of Healthcare Organizations article, the South Dakota Department of Health (DOH) has issued a request for proposals (RFP) in response to an identified need for additional long term care nursing facility capacity within South Dakota. Proposals are due to DOH by 5 p.m. on Dec. 21.
The specific purpose of the RFP is to solicit proposals from long term care providers who are interested in obtaining additional long term care nursing facility beds. Currently, DOH has a total of 255 nursing facility beds available that are eligible to be reallocated in order to meet the long term care needs of the residents of South Dakota.
