Your Rights as a Resident. Residents of this Facility keep all their basic rights and liberties as a citizen or resident of the United States when, and after, they are admitted. Because these rights are so important, both federal and state laws and regulations describe them in detail, and state law requires that a comprehensive Resident Bill of Rights be attached to this Agreement. Attachment F, entitled “Resident Bill of Rights,” lists your rights, as set forth in State and Federal law. For your information, the attachment also provides the location of your rights in statute. Violations of state laws and regulations identified above may subject our Facility and our staff to civil or criminal proceedings. You have the right to voice grievances to us without fear of any reprisal, and you may submit complaints or any questions or concerns you may have about our services or your rights to the local office of the California Department of Public Health, Licensing and Certification District Office , or to the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman (see page 1 for contact information). You should review the attached “Resident Bill of Rights” very carefully. To acknowledge that you have been informed of the “Resident Bill of Rights,” please sign here:
