Misconduct, which constitutes grounds for revocation, suspension, or other restriction of a license or a limitation or other discipline of a licensee, is a satisfactory showing to the board of any grounds for disciplinary action stated in Chapter 1 or: (1) acting in a manner inconsistent with the health or safety of the patients of the nursing home or community residential care facility; (2) failing to ensure that the nursing home or community residential care facility in which he is an administrator complies with the provisions of law and regulations of the licensing or supervising authority or agency, whether federal, state, or local, having jurisdiction over the operation and licensing of the nursing home or community residential care facility; (3) intentional or knowing, direct or indirect, violation of or the aiding and abetting in the violation of this chapter or a regulation promulgated under this chapter; (4) failing to operate a nursing home or community residential care facility in a manner that ensures the safety, health, and welfare of the patients; (5) use of a false, fraudulent, or forged statement in the practice of nursing home administration or community residential care facility administration; (6) supervising or aiding an unlicensed person in the practice of nursing home administration or community residential care facility administration; (7) permitting unauthorized disclosure of information relating to a patient in a nursing home or community residential care facility under his administration; (8) use of alcohol, drugs, or controlled substances to such a degree as to adversely affect the ability to act as a nursing home administrator or community residential care facility administrator; (9) a mental or physical disability or addiction which renders further practice dangerous to the public or to the patients of the nursing home or community residential care facility; (10) conviction of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony, a crime involving the safety, health, or welfare of a patient, or any other crime involving moral turpitude. The license of a person who is convicted of, or who pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, such crime immediately may be suspended temporarily pending final disposition of a disciplinary proceeding to be commenced upon the conviction or the entry of the plea of guilty or nolo contendere. A person who is suspended must be reinstated immediately upon the filing of documentation, satisfactory to the board, that the conviction has been reversed. Reinstatement does not terminate a disciplinary action pending against the person. The license of a person may be suspended immediately pending final disposition of a disciplinary proceeding if the board has probable cause to believe that continued practice as a nursing home administrator or community residential care facility administrator by the licensee constitutes harm to the safety, health, or welfare of patients in a nursing home or community residential care facility.
