§295.2050. Incident and Accident Reporting

Latest version.

a)         An establishment shall report to the Department any serious incident or accident. For the purposes of this Section, "serious" means any incident or accident that causes physical or emotional harm or injury to a resident. A change in an individual's (resident's) condition that is due to health or medical decline is not a reportable incident or accident.

b)         The report shall be made by contacting the Department of Public Health Division of Assisted Living via email at DPH.LTCAL@illinois.gov or as requested by the Department within 24 hours after the occurrence of the incident or accident.

c)         A copy of the report shall be maintained by the establishment for one year after the date of the incident or accident.
