How Massachusetts regulates assisted living
Assisted living residences in Massachusetts are certified by the Executive Office of Aging & Independence under 651 CMR 12.00. They provide housing, meals and help with personal care for a monthly fee. They are not nursing homes and do not provide skilled nursing. Some have Special Care Residences for people living with dementia.
Visit at mealtime, ask for the most recent certification compliance review, ask what happens when care needs increase, and compare the base fee against what is included. The state Assisted Living Ombudsman at (800) 243-4636 can tell you about complaints on file.
