What North Dakota facilities need to know
In North Dakota, assisted living licensing and oversight run through the North Dakota Dept. of Health & Human Services. Emergency preparedness planning is a standard licensing expectation — and if your facility participates in Medicare or Medicaid, the federal CMS Emergency Preparedness Rule (42 CFR § 483.73, “Appendix Z”) applies on top of state rules: a written all-hazards plan, policies and procedures, a communication plan, and training with drills. Confirm the current requirements for your license type directly with the agency.
