CANHR is pleased to announce the release of two updated and improved fact sheets for consumers of health facility services.

Outline of Nursing Home Residents' Rights: this fact sheet is perhaps the most comprehensive and best categorized list of nursing home resident rights ever compiled.
Challenging Hospital Discharge Decisions: this fact sheet includes important information about Health Services Advisory Group (HSAG), which recently replaced Lumetra as California's Medicare Quality Improvement Organization, and an explanation of a hospital patient's right to refuse an inappropriate transfer.

We hope that you find these fact sheets informative and helpful to share with your clients."
