We certainly, as an association, would advocate for a shorter period, just given the demands on staff. The more condensed and more defined the process can be, the more contained it can be.

We would prefer something that is not overly prolonged, given the demands on staff time around communication and support and education in the homes, recognizing that there may be more time required up front to put mechanisms in place.
