§ 33-22-108 — Powers and duties of board

(a) The board shall:
(i) Develop, impose and enforce standards which must
be met by individuals in order to receive a license or temporary
license as a nursing home administrator, which standards shall
be designed to insure that nursing home administrators will be
individuals who have backgrounds that do not evidence conduct
adverse to the practice of nursing home administration or to the
ability to practice nursing home administration and are
otherwise suitable, and who, by training or experience, in the
field of institutional administration, are qualified to serve as
nursing home administrators;
(ii) Develop and apply appropriate techniques,
including examinations and investigations, for determining
whether an individual meets such standards;
(iii) Issue licenses to individuals determined, after
application of such techniques, to meet such standards, and
revoke or suspend licenses previously issued by the board in any
case where the individual holding such license is determined
substantially to have failed to conform to the requirements of
such standards, subject to the provisions of the Wyoming
Administrative Procedure Act;
(iv) Conduct a continuing study and investigation of
nursing homes and administrators of nursing homes within the
state with a view to the improvement of the standards imposed
for the licensing of such administrators and of procedures and
methods for the enforcement of standards with respect to
administrators of nursing homes who have been licensed as such;
(v) Establish and carry out procedures designed to
insure that individuals licensed as nursing home administrators
will, during any period that they serve as such, comply with the
requirements of such standards;
(vi) Receive, investigate, and take appropriate
action with respect to, any charge or complaint filed with the
board to the effect that any individual licensed as a nursing
home administrator has failed to comply with the requirements of
such standards; and
(vii) Upon receipt from the department of family
services of a certified copy of an order from a court to
withhold, suspend or otherwise restrict a license issued by the
board, notify the party named in the court order of the
withholding, suspension or restriction of the license in
accordance with the terms of the court order. No appeal under
the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act shall be allowed for a
license withheld, suspended or restricted under this paragraph.
