In facilities licensed for how many residents must at least one staff member be responsible for organizing, conducting, and evaluating activities?

6-29
15-49
16-49
30-49

The correct answer is: 16-49

In facilities licensed for 16-49 residents, regulations stipulate that at least one staff member must be designated to organize, conduct, and evaluate activities. This requirement ensures that residents engage in meaningful and structured recreational, social, and therapeutic activities, which are essential for their overall well-being and quality of life. The presence of a dedicated staff member tasked with these responsibilities fosters a more engaging environment, enhances social interactions among residents, and helps meet individual needs based on personal preferences and abilities. The focus on this specific range of residents reflects a regulatory approach geared towards ensuring adequate staffing and resources are available to cater to the needs of a mid-sized group, which could have varying levels of need for support and activity engagement. It ensures that the facility maintains a quality program that benefits all residents, fostering a community atmosphere.
