Can someone be kicked out of assisted living? Understanding Resident Rights

Yes, an assisted living resident can be asked to leave, but only under very specific circumstances defined by state law and the residency agreement. The eviction process is often complex and highly regulated, designed to protect the rights and well-being of vulnerable residents, especially those relying on Medicaid. Understanding the specific legal reasons and your rights is crucial if you or a loved one receives an involuntary discharge notice.
