Elder Justice: What “No Harm” Really Means for Residents is a newsletter published by the Center for Medicare Advocacy and the Long Term Care Community Coalition. The purpose of the newsletter is to provide residents, families, friends, and advocates information on what exactly a “no harm” deficiency is and what it means for nursing home residents. This issue includes four “no-harm” deficiencies from February 2020 which illustrate residents being deprived of their rights to 1) Following an advance directive; 2) Proper oxygen therapy; 3) Gender pronoun preferences; and 4) Appropriate blood pressure medication.
