- Ask to see last month's night and weekend schedules instead of an average staffing figure.
- Ask what happens when a private-pay resident's money runs out, and whether Special Assistance residents are admitted.
- Read the residency agreement at home first: fees, the notice required before a rate increase, and discharge terms.
