Personal care home regulations vary by jurisdiction, but regulations governing them typically address issues surrounding the home's facilities, staff, and accountability. In many areas, a personal care home must be licensed or registered with a governmental agency before it can accept residents. In some areas, this government agency also enforces personal care home regulations. In addition, some jurisdictions even have an ombudsman who can intercede on behalf of personal care home residents who have complaints about their living conditions.
