    Topic: Admission, Discharge and Transfer

    We’re interested in meeting participants that want to share their experience (2-5 minutes)
    • What was your admission experience like?
    • As a family member, have you ever been asked to sign an admission agreement that you will be financially responsible? What did you do?
    • Has the nursing home ever threatened to discharge you because the staff thinks you complain too much?

    IF YOU DO WANT TO SHARE:

    • You do not have to mention the name of the nursing home.
    • If you need help preparing, Cynthia Rudder, our consultant, will help.
    • Please include your phone number when registering.
