THE RESIDENT REPRESENTATIVE. The “Resident Representative” is a person selected by the Resident, such as a Power of Attorney, Guardian, Representative Payee, Health Care Agent, the Resident’s spouse, or other legal representative, with legal authority to act on the Resident’s behalf to: (i) support the Resident in decision making; (ii) receive notifications from the Center for the Resident; (iii) when properly authorized by law, access medical, social or other personal information of the Resident; and (iv) manage financial matters and assist the Resident in meeting the Resident’s obligations under this Agreement by insuring that the Resident uses his/her assets and income to pay for the cost of care, as billed by the Center. The Resident Representative agrees to use both the Resident’s liquid and non-liquid resources, including monthly income, to pay for the cost of care for the Resident and promises continuity of payment from the Resident’s funds and assets, or from third party payors, to meet the Resident’s obligations under this Agreement. The Resident Representative is not obligated to pay for the cost of the Resident’s care from the Resident Representative’s own funds. The “Resident Representative” shall be the Resident’s primary contact person with the Center.
