Regs for ALF locked-in memory care unit

Published

Hello to everyone out there.

Please can somebody enlighten me on what is the difference of rules, regulations, clinical and nursing care of a locked-in memory care unit, in an ALF setting compared to a SNF or long-term care setting. I really want to know the difference as I am going to be managing a memory care in an ALF setting in my new job. All input will be much appreciated.

Thank you and warm regards to all!

Looking forward to all your experienced answers.
