Involving the family in the transition process is crucial for several reasons. Family plays a significant role in the emotional and psychological well-being of residents, especially when moving between different environments such as from a group home to a more independent living situation or another care facility. When families are actively engaged, they can provide valuable insights into the resident’s preferences, history, and needs, which can help tailor the transition plan to support the resident effectively.

Additionally, family members can offer emotional support and encouragement, helping the resident feel more secure and connected as they navigate changes. This involvement can foster a sense of stability for the resident, making it easier for them to adapt to new circumstances. Including families in the discussion also helps ensure that everyone is on the same page, leading to a smoother transition process that honors the resident's preferences and needs.
