Resources
and the Law on
Resident Care
These model policies and procedures have
been developed to assist the operators of
small assisted living facilities in Maryland. Implementing good policies
and procedures protects both staff and residents. Some smaller providers
may find it difficult to find the resources to develop all of the forms
and policies that they may wish to have.
These policies and forms can be downloaded and modified to
suit your situation.
Please note that
The Legal Aid
Bureau
(LAB)cannot provide legal help to operators of
assisted living facilities. However, if a resident has a legal problem,
please make a referral.

to the Legal Aid Bureau. The forms
and model polices were created by either the Legal Aid Bureau (LAB) or
were adapted from the
Baltimore County Department of Health’s Assisted Living Manual
(Balt.County) The origin of each document is noted above and on the
document itself. Some are combined documents. ALF operators may remove
the attribution statement and ‘review date” from the documents.
