Section 449.99875 - Purpose and scope of limitation; imposition in addition to partial ban on admissions1. A limitation on the occupancy of a residential unit must be imposed by the Bureau to safeguard the health, safety and well-being of residents currently receiving care, treatment or services and to prevent the admission of persons who cannot adequately be served by the facility. If a limitation on occupancy is imposed, the limitation applies regardless of the source of payment. The Bureau may limit the occupancy of a facility to the number of beds occupied at the time the deficiency occurred. If such a limitation is imposed, priority in new admissions must be given to immediate relatives of persons presently occupying the facility.2. If the facility contains separately identifiable units and the deficiencies are confined to one or more discrete units, the limitation on occupancy may be limited to those units.3. A limitation on occupancy may be imposed in addition to a partial ban on admissions if the facility is unable to provide adequate care, treatment or services for persons needing a discrete kind or type of care.Nev.
