Finance & Legal   

Senior Living is a trade label for a number of different options, including the "dreaded" but important nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities), assisted living facilities, personal care homes, age-restricted apartments, and continuing care retirement communities, also known as CCRCs or life plan communities. Pennsylvania has the highest concentration of CCRCs in the United States. There is regulatory oversight for some of these options, and it can be challenging for residents to know how and to whom they should address any concerns, if they are unable to get full answers from management. During the first session, we'll take a "big picture" look at the options, including questions about payment, contracts, resident rights and resident obligations. During the second session, we will dig deeper and look at language in several types of contracts, including "refundable fee" options used in CCRCs. Professor Pearson will also address the latest events in a unique Pennsylvania law, what lawyers call "filial support" laws, that are sometimes the subject of attempts to hold adult children liable for the costs of long-term care of their parents.
