	Hospitality service may include meal services, laundry services, social and recreational opportunities or a 24-hour emergency response system. Personal care services would include assistance with eating, grooming, bathing, etc.; storage and distribution of medications; supervision of cash and property; nutrition monitoring; behaviour management; or psychosocial rehabilitation. Tenants and landlords entering into assisted/supported living arrangements not governed by the ''RTA'' ~~should sign tenancy agreements and separate service agreements specifying which services are included and on what terms. A service agreement should cover:~~

	* the hospitality services and personal care services provided to each occupant of the rental unit;
	* the amount payable for these services and when it is due;
	* the landlord’s entry into the rental unit to provide services; and
	* whether there is a requirement for other occupants and guests to pay for services that are not needed.

	~~More information on assisted living services can be found at the website of the Assisted Living Registry at www.health.gov.bc.ca/assisted/residents/.~~

	Fees for these services should not be part of a lump-sum monthly bill but should be set out separately from the rental fee. A landlord can increase the rent if the tenant agrees, or once a year by a percentage permitted by law. The landlord must give the tenant three whole rental months’ written notice before the effective date of the rent increase. A landlord will not be permitted to withdraw or restrict rental services if they are essential, or if they constitute material terms of the rental agreement.

Supports offered on-site by supportive housing providers are non-clinical, and residents are not required to receive support to maintain their housing. Any policies put in place by supportive housing providers must be consistent with the ''RTA'' and regulations.
