What questions does Maplewood at Newtown's record raise?
Let the public record set the agenda: ask when the current operator took over from Maplewood at Newtown ALSA, LLC and what changed for residents.
- 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.
