placement of residents - Relocation assistance.
Any owner of a facility licensed under this act shall give
ninety (90) days' notice prior to voluntarily closing a facility or
closing any part of a facility, or prior to closing any part of a
facility if closing such part will require the transfer or discharge
of more than ten percent (10%) of the residents. Such notice shall
be given to the Department, to any resident who must be transferred
or discharged, to the resident's representative, and to a member of
the resident's family, where practicable. Notice shall state the
proposed date of closing and the reason for closing. The facility
shall offer to assist the resident in securing an alternative
placement and shall advise the resident on available alternatives.
Where the resident is unable to choose an alternative placement and
is not under guardianship, the Department shall be notified of the
need for relocation assistance. The facility shall comply with all
applicable laws and regulations until the date of closing, including
those related to transfer or discharge of residents. The Department
may place a relocation team in the facility if needed. Also, the
Department may promulgate rules and regulations that establish
criteria for the acceleration of the notice requirement if
extraordinary circumstances warrant it.
