2. Lifestyle and choices
“Every resident has the right to have their lifestyle and choices respected.”
In other words: Staff must respect the choices you make about how you want to live your life in the home.
The home should respect your habits and what you prefer. For example, you can have a romantic or sexual relationship, if that is something you and your partner want and agree to.
You have the right to express yourself and take part in activities that you choose. For example, you might prefer to read a book in your room instead of joining an exercise group.
