Assisted Living was developed to provide an alternative to nursing homes, emphasizing quality

the rewards, the risks and the shared responsibilities inherent in this type of living environment.
Assisted Living is often described with terms such as 'autonomy and independence', 'dignity and
respect' and 'freedom of choice'. If you choose to reside in our community, each resident and
their family members bave chosen our quality of life setting rather than a medical or institutional
care setting. With your desire to remain as independent as possible there are potential risks. We
do not provide 24-hour skilled nursing care. As part of this resident agreement, you and your
family members acknowledge that some of these inherited risks to injury are beyond our control.
Because residents are not monitored 24-hours a day, the risk of bodily injury from falls and
accidents is a common reality. If you have sustained a previous fall prior to moving in our
community there remains an even higher risk of falling again For the cognitively diminished
resident, the risk of wandering into a non-secure area is also present. Any resident that sits in a
wheelchair for extended periods of time, has a history of skin breakdown, or spends extended
periods of time in bed has a high risk of skin breakdown caused by pressure. Although these are
some of the more common inherited risks in the aging process there can be additional risks
depending on each resident's needs, diagnosis, and medical conditions. Assisted Living is what
its name implies "assistance in living". Twenty-four (24) hour skilled nursing care is not and
will not be provided.
In summary, we want you and your family members to be informed of the inherent risks we
often cannot control, as we respect your decision to retain your independence and maintain your
quality of life.

Introduction:
Assisted Living was developed to provide an alternative to nursing homes, emphasizing quality
of-life, for our nation's elderly. With this choice each resident and their family must understand
the rewards, the risks and the shared responsibilities inherent in. this type of living environment.
Assisted Living is often described with terms such as'autonomy and independence', 'dignity and
respect' and 'freedom of choice'. If you choose to reside in our community, each resident and
their family members have chosen our quality of life setting rather than a medical or institutional
care setting. With your desire to remain as independent as possible there are potential risks. We
do not provide 24-hour skilled nursing care. As part of this resident agreement, you and your
family members acknowledge that some of these inherited risks to injury are beyond our control.
Because assisted living is specifically designed to offer residents more independence and
autonomy, and that 24-hour care and supervision is not provided on an individual basis, the risk
of bodily injury and severe consequences from fills and accidents is a common reality. If you or
your family member have/has sustained a previous fall prior to moving in our community, there
remains an even higher risk of falling again. Therefore, it is our ' policy that all new residents
moving into our community obtain an order from their primary care physician for an
Occupational and Physical Therapy evaluation. In addition, if you sustain a fall in our
community, your physician will be notified and another order for therapy may be obtained from
your primary care physician if appropriate. All residents receive an emergency call bracelet that
works with the community's emergency call system in each resident suite (not in the common
areas where additional Elcombe units and buttons are provided). We strongly suggest that you
wear this bracelet at all times so that you can notify staff in case help is needed or you are not
able to reach the Elcombe unit in the room or the button in your bathroom 1 understand that I or
my family member am/is at risk for falling and I/we acknowledge that Uwe have been given the
opportunity to discuss my or my family member's condition and any preventative interventions
with the community's staff members. I fiuther understand that The Bridges at Bent Creek can
matte no guarantee that I or my family member will not fall. The community has adopted a
sbared-risk program to work together to minimize the risks that you or your family may fall in
the future and be harmed as a result. Your participation in the shared risk program by providing
any input or suggestions that you may have that would promote you or your family member's
safety, by carefully evaluating all of the options to reduce the risk of falls, and by supporting
those options that you believe to be in your or your family member's best interests is very
important to us and essential to reducing the risk of falls.
d9a:EO go ST qaA
TZ'd
Assisted Living Agreement -Addendum VI - Page 2
Elopement:
For the cognitively diminished resilient, the risk of wondering into a non-secure area is also
present. Many residents come to assisted living with some form of dementia, and that coupled
with a resident being ambulatory will put them at risk for elopement. Because assisted living is
specifically designed to offer residents more independence and autonomy, and that 24 hour care
and supervision is not provided on an individual basis, the risk of elopenl ent is a reality. In
addition, some medications that may alter mental status also may put a resident at risk for
elopement. With a physician order and family consent, a resident: who has a history of elopement
or who we feel is strongly at risk may be placod in our community's secured unit. I/We
understand that I or my family member am/is at risk for elopement. We have been given the
opportunity to discuss my or my family member's condition and ;preventative interventions with
the community staff IlWe understand that the Bridges at Bent Creek can make no guarantee that
I or my family member will not leave the community unattended.
Self Administration of Medications:
We believe that in order for a resident to self administer medications belshe should be able to list
and identify each prescribed medication, describe the purpose of the medication, describe and
demonstrate the correct dosage, and correctly take or apply the medication. If a resident or a
resident family member requests that a resident self administer medication, we will assess the
residents ability to do so. If a resident is unable to successfully complete the above task, we
believe that it is not safe for the resident to self administer his/her own medications. I/We
understand that "the Bridges at Bent Creek is not responsible for medications errors that result
for the self administration of medications by a resident.
mokin :
The Bridges at Bent Creek is a smoke free building. However, we; do recognize that smoking is a
resident right and therefore the Bridges has designated an outdoor area where residents may
smoke. The location of this area may change from time to time. Residents may smoke only in
this designated area and must extinguish all their eigarettelcigar brats in community-designated
containers. If a resklent does not follow these guidelines, at the option of the community, that
resident will not be allowed to smoke and all cigarettealcigars will be taken from them or that
resident may be asked to leave the community. The Bridges at Beat Creek does not provide 24-
hour supervision and takes no responsibility for a resident smoking.

the room. Defendant endured other heating and ventilation problems. Nonnal
