DETAILS

The ban has created anxiety and frustration for relatives and friends of residents. They say they cannot see firsthand if a loved one’s needs are being met. Visiting, they say, allows them to spot gaps in care. Concerns over inadequate care and unclean conditions prompted some families to seek assistance from the Center for Elder Law and Justice.
