22VAC40-73-10. Definitions - "Resident" means any adult residing in an assisted living facility for the purpose of receiving maintenance or care. The definition of resident also includes adults residing in an assisted living facility who have independent living status.

• This is one example where the actual definition may cause conflict in the standards for residents with independent living status and the completion of ISPs. 22VAC40-73-450 states, “An individualized service plan is not required for those residents who are assessed as capable of maintaining themselves in an independent living status.” An example of potential conflict where ISPs are required to be updated with specific information for “residents” but are not needed for IL residents is found in 22VAC40-73-220 A 2 Private duty personnel.
