U.S. Representative Jim McGovern (D-MA), who serves as the Ranking Member on the U.S. House of Representatives Rules Committee, recently visited with residents and staff of The Residence at Orchard Grove, an LCB Senior Living community in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts.
In addition to the opportunity to meet with residents, Congressman McGovern also spoke with staff as well as representatives from the Massachusetts Assisted Living Association (MASS-ALA) and Argentum about issues of importance to senior living providers. Topics discussed included workforce development and ensuring quality of life for senior living residents. Congressman McGovern has been a consistent champion for senior living and we appreciate LCB Senior Living and MASS-ALA leadership for coordinating this tour and visit with Congressman McGovern and his staff.
