Section 6000.1018 - Intermediate Care Facility for the Mentally Retarded (ICF/MR) facility director as a guardian
Universal Citation: 55 PA Code ยง 6000.1018
Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 44, November 2, 2024
The prohibition in 20 Pa.C.S. § 5461(f) (relating to decisions by health care representative) on a health care provider's being a health care representative is not applicable to a facility director under section 417(c) of the MH/MR Act (50 P.S. § 4417(c)), regarding powers and duties of directors, because a facility director is made a guardian under that section, not a health care representative.
