We only have State Regulations. No Federal Guidelines at all. I am researching now to see if we need Federal Guidelines or what avenue to go to be an active advocate of assisted living facilities and mental health guidelines. I have been a resident of an assisted living faciliities for 8 years and very much know we need strong guidelines to govern the mentally ill who mental and abuse, verbally other residents too often. Some throw things and hit. Sandra Boletchek</p>sandraboletchekThu, 30 Jul 2009 11:29:47 -0000
