Delaware Now Requires Nursing Home Emergency Plans
Posted In Health Care, Nursing Homes
Hurricane Irene blew more than wind and rain into Delaware in 2011. Nursing homes and similar facilities now must have an “all hazards” plan as well as two staff members with FEMA training. We wrote to suggest the “sheltering in place” part of each facility plan include a fully stocked bar, an amenity one of our attorneys enjoyed when stranded on Little Palm Island in a thatched hut during a category 2 hurricane, but that revision did not make it into the final rule. Compliance deadline: contemporaneous with annual renewal for licenses and license applications. 16 DE Admin. Code 3201.
All Delaware Regulations Issued March 2013
