Text

(a) No health facility may operate unless it
is under the supervision of an administrator who holds a currently valid
health facility administrator's license or provisional license issued

after entry of judgment constitutes a separate infraction.

facility administrator"; or
(3) use the initials "H.F.A." or any other words, letters,
abbreviations, or insignia indicating or implying that the
individual is a health facility administrator or assistant health
facility administrator licensed under this article;
unless the individual is licensed as a health facility administrator under
this article.
(c) A licensed health facility administrator may not practice health
facility administration in more than one (1) health facility at the same
time.
