The legislature hereby   finds and declares that congregate residential housing  with  supportive   services  in  a home-like setting, commonly known as assisted living, is   an integral part of the  continuum  of  long  term  care.  Further,  the   philosophy  of  assisted  living  emphasizes  aging  in  place, personal   dignity, autonomy, independence, privacy and freedom of choice.The intent of this article is to create a clear and flexible statutory   structure for assisted living that provides  a  definition  of  assisted   living  residence;  that  requires  licensure  of  the  residence;  that   requires  a  written  residency   agreement   that   contains   consumer   protections;  that  enunciates  and  protects  resident rights; and that   provides adequate and  accurate  information  for  consumers,  which  is   essential  to  the continued development of a viable market for assisted   living. Entities which hold themselves out as assisted living residences   must apply for licensure and be approved by  the  state  to  operate  as   assisted  living  residences  pursuant  to this article, and must comply   with the requirements of this article.* NB There are 2 § 4650's
