Abstract

With the holidays fast approaching questions inevitably arise concerning a resident’s right and ability to leave a nursing facility. Residents often want to join in family festivities but may believe that leaving a nursing facility for a period of time is not an option because they may lose their source of payment from Medicare, Medicaid, or a long term care insurance policy or lose their room all together.
