Residents' Rights Week

"Opening the Door: A resident's right to visitation."
October 7 - 13, 2001

Residents’ Rights Week is designated by the National Citizens’ Coalition for Nursing Home Reform (NCCNHR) each year to honor residents living in all long-term care facilities. Here at NCCNHR, all staff (including secretaries, support staff, etc.) will be given the opportunity to visit facility residents as part of their work during that week.
