(b) In order to facilitate the development of assisted living services in state-funded congregate housing facilities, the Commissioner of Public Health may waive any provision of the regulations for assisted living services agencies, as defined in section 19a-490 , which provide services in state-funded congregate housing facilities. No waiver of such regulations shall be made if the commissioner determines that the waiver would: (1) Endanger the life, safety or health of any resident receiving assisted living services in a state-funded congregate housing facility; (2) impact the quality or provision of services provided to a resident in a state-funded congregate housing facility; (3) revise or eliminate the requirements for an assisted living services agency's quality assurance program; (4) revise or eliminate the requirements for an assisted living services agency's grievance and appeals process; or (5) revise or eliminate the assisted living services agency's requirements relative to a client's bill of rights and responsibilities. The commissioner, upon the granting of a waiver of any provision of such regulations, may impose conditions which assure the health, safety and welfare of residents receiving assisted living services in a state-funded congregate housing facility. The commissioner may revoke such a waiver upon a finding (A) that the health, safety or welfare of any such resident is jeopardized, or (B) that such facility has failed to comply with such conditions as the commissioner may impose pursuant to this subsection. (c) The provisions of sections 19a-693 to 19a-701 , inclusive, shall not apply to any state-funded congregate housing facility.
