NORS Online Training

The NORS data collection was revised effective October 1, 2019. The revisions to NORS will enhance ACL’s ability to understand and report on: Ombudsman program operations, the experience of long-term care facility residents, and changes in long-term supports and services policies, research, and practices. NORC updated the four-part NORS training materials to reflect the updated codes, definitions, and activities and instruct programs on how to record the work they do.
