What should we ask on a tour of Maplewood at Darien?
Start with what the record raises: ask for the residency agreement and the ALSA service agreement side by side: the MRC charges for housing and core services, the ALSA for care.
- Ask who the assisted living supervisor (the required registered nurse) is, and how the 24-hour on-call nurse is reached at night.
- Ask for the fee schedule and the history of increases; MRCs must give 90 days' notice of recurring-fee increases and ALSAs 60 days.
- Ask whether the community accepts residents whose assisted living services are paid by the Connecticut Home Care Program for Elders, and what rent is charged if so.
