Our Goodyear nursing home abuse attorney will make sure you know your rights under the law. In 1987, the Nursing Home Reform Act was passed, with the intent of establishing a standard for certified nursing homes. It is critically important for residents of certified nursing homes as well as their family to know what rights they have under federal law. Those rights include:
The right to freedom from abuse, mistreatment, and neglect;
The right to freedom from physical restraints;
The right to privacy;
The right to accommodation of medical, physical, psychological, and social needs;
The right to participate in the review of one’s care plan, and to be fully informed in advance
about any changes in care, treatment, or change of status in the facility; and
The right to voice grievances without discrimination or reprisal.
42 C.F.R. § 483.10 provides the full list of resident rights, which is much longer than the sample provided here.
Arizona nursing home residents should have quality care and nursing homes who choose to neglect their elderly residents should be held accountable.
