What is the minimum type size for a copy of resident's rights made publicly available?

The minimum type size for a copy of residents' rights made publicly available is established to ensure that the information is easily readable by all residents, family members, and visitors. A 12-point type size strikes a balance between readability and space efficiency, making it accessible to a broad audience that includes individuals with varying degrees of vision. This size is commonly referenced in guidelines for public documents to enhance accessibility and ensure compliance with regulations regarding transparency in resident rights.

Size choices are typically guided by readability standards that prioritize legibility, and a 12-point font is widely accepted as providing optimal clarity for most individuals. Larger sizes, such as 14-point or 16-point, may improve readability but could limit the amount of information that can be displayed on a page, which is why 12-point is mandated as the minimum.
