Which concept may limit facility staff and restrict resident choice based on assessed risks?

Bounded Choice is a concept that refers to creating a framework within which residents can make decisions, but those options are limited based on assessments of risk. In assisted living facilities, safety and well-being are vital, and so staff may need to intervene and set boundaries for residents' choices. This ensures that while residents have some autonomy, their choices are guided by a consideration of their health, safety, and the potential risks associated with certain behaviors or situations.

For example, a resident might want to participate in an activity that poses a physical risk due to their health conditions. In this case, the staff would evaluate the risk and offer limited, safer alternatives, exemplifying the idea of bounded choice. This approach balances the autonomy of residents with the facility's responsibility to ensure their safety and support their needs appropriately.
