245B.05 CONSUMER PROTECTION STANDARDS.
Subdivision 1.Environment.
(1) ensure that services are provided in a safe and hazard-free environment when the license holder is the owner, lessor, or tenant of the service site. All other license holders shall inform the consumer or the consumer's legal representative and case manager about any environmental safety concerns in writing;
(2) lock doors only to protect the safety of consumers and not as a substitute for staff supervision or interactions with consumers;
(3) follow procedures that minimize the consumer's health risk from communicable diseases; and
(4) maintain equipment, vehicles, supplies, and materials owned or leased by the license holder in good condition.
Subd. 2.Licensed capacity for facility-based day training and habilitation services.
The licensed capacity of each day training and habilitation service site must be determined by the amount of primary space available, the scheduling of activities at other service sites, and the space requirements of consumers receiving services at the site. Primary space does not include hallways, stairways, closets, utility areas, bathrooms, kitchens, and floor areas beneath stationary equipment. A facility-based day training and habilitation site must have a minimum of 40 square feet of primary space available for each consumer who is present at the site at any one time. Licensed capacity under this subdivision does not apply to: (1) consumers receiving community-based day training and habilitation services; and (2) the temporary use of a facility-based training and habilitation service site for the limited purpose of providing transportation to consumers receiving community-based day training and habilitation services from the license holder. The license holder must comply at all times with all applicable fire and safety codes under subdivision 4 and adequate supervision requirements under section 245B.055 for all persons receiving day training and habilitation services.
Subd. 3.Residential service sites for more than four consumers; four-bed ICF's/MR.
Residential service sites licensed to serve more than four consumers and four-bed ICF's/MR must meet the fire protection provisions of either the Residential Board and Care Occupancies Chapter or the Health Care Occupancies Chapter of the Life Safety Code (LSC), National Fire Protection Association, 1985 edition, or its successors. Sites meeting the definition of a residential board and care occupancy for 16 or less beds must have the emergency evacuation capability of residents evaluated in accordance with Appendix F of the LSC or its successors, except for those sites that meet the LSC Health Care Occupancies Chapter or its successors.
Subd. 4.Meeting fire and safety codes.
Subd. 5.Consumer health.
The license holder is responsible for meeting the health service needs assigned to the license holder in the individual service plan and for bringing health needs as discovered by the license holder promptly to the attention of the consumer, the consumer's legal representative, and the case manager. The license holder is required to maintain documentation on how the consumer's health needs will be met, including a description of procedures the license holder will follow for the consumer regarding medication monitoring and administration and seizure monitoring, if needed. The medication administration procedures are those procedures necessary to implement medication and treatment orders issued by appropriately licensed professionals, and must be established in consultation with a registered nurse, nurse practitioner, physician's assistant, or medical doctor.
Subd. 6.First aid.
When the license holder is providing direct service and supervision to a consumer who requires a 24-hour plan of care and receives services at a site licensed under this chapter, the license holder must have available a staff person trained in first aid, and, if needed under section 245B.07, subdivision 6, paragraph (d), cardiopulmonary resuscitation from a qualified source, as determined by the commissioner.
Subd. 7.Reporting incidents.
(d) Death or serious injury of the consumer must also be reported to the Department of Human Services Licensing Division and the ombudsman, as required under sections 245.91 and 245.94, subdivision 2a.
