A chronic and convalescent nursing home or a rest home with nursing supervision may maintain temperatures in resident rooms and other areas used by residents at such facilities at levels that are lower than minimum temperature standards prescribed in the Public Health Code provided temperature levels at such facilities comply with the comfortable and safe temperature standards prescribed under federal law pursuant to 42 CFR 483.15(h)(6). In accordance with section 19a-36, the Commissioner of Public Health shall amend the Public Health Code in conformity with the provisions of this section.
(P.A. 03-272, S. 1; P.A. 10-117, S. 63.)
