Assisted Living and Nursing Home Rights

Assisted living and nursing home residents have specific rights designed to protect their dignity, safety, and quality of life. These rights include the right to privacy, respect, and autonomy in making personal decisions. Residents should receive appropriate care tailored to their needs, and they have the right to participate in activities and maintain social connections. Additionally, they can voice complaints without fear of retaliation. It’s essential for residents and their families to be informed about these rights to ensure proper care and support in a safe environment.
