Taking Residents’ Voices Seriously in an Assisted Living Facility Moving into a nursing home or an assisted living facility can be stressful for senior citizens. Often, one of the main stressors is the perceived or real loss of control over their lives. Under the Nursing Home Reform Act, seniors living in covered facilities have the right to comprehensive information about their care plans, including services, costs, rules, and any changes. Residents also have the right to participate in their care management, including by reviewing their medical records and refusing treatment or medication. Searching for “Assisted Living Near Me”?
