K.A.R. 26-41 (assisted living facilities and residential health care facilities); disaster and emergency preparedness at K.A.R. 26-41-104; administration at 26-41-101 · Kansas Dept. for Aging and Disability Services / State Fire Marshal · Kansas State Fire Marshal assisted living guidance · checked July 2026Filling it in so it survives a survey
Vary the time and the scenario between drills — many states require it in terms, and a log showing every drill at 10am on a Tuesday is the first thing an experienced surveyor picks out. Record what went wrong and the date it was fixed: a run of flawless drills reads as a log nobody actually ran, and the corrective action is the part that shows the drill was worth holding.
The plan behind the drills
A drill tests a plan. Everything Kansas requires of that plan — filing, prescribed forms, retention — sits alongside this, and the emergency plan builder writes it from the same research, so the two cannot disagree.
