A CBC Radio segment highlights how a Minnesota nursing home alcohol restriction led one woman to fight for residents’ right to have “happy hour.” The issue emerged when staff learned licensed facilities couldn’t coordinate a happy hour without a permit. Minnesota lawmakers responded with an omnibus liquor bill provision, dubbed “Grandparents’ Happy Hour,” which would let nursing homes and assisted living facilities serve alcohol to residents and guests during organized events, if they follow notification and other required steps. The measure moves through the legislative process.
