22VAC30-120-130: Relocation of adult foster care provider

A. If the adult foster care provider relocates within the locality, the local department approving the provider shall determine continued compliance with standards related to the home as soon as possible, but no later than 30 calendar days after relocation, to avoid disruption of services to the adult receiving care.

B. If the adult foster care provider relocates within the Commonwealth to a locality other than the locality that originally approved the adult foster care provider, the local department that originally approved the adult foster care provider (original local department) shall notify the local department in the new locality (new local department) of the relocation. If the new local department offers adult foster care services, the new local department may accept the adult foster care provider approval from the original local department based upon the recommendation of the original local department or the new local department may initiate an approval process. If the new local department does not offer adult foster care services, the original local department shall request written permission from the new local department for the adult foster care provider to continue to provide adult foster care services for the original local department.
