1. Inspect for fire and life safety standards and regulations.
2. Contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
3. Inform the state board of nursing.
4. Contact the Joint Commission to schedule a survey.
Inspect for fire and life safety standards and regulations.
Rationale: Health care facilities must meet fire and life safety standards and regulations. The building will need to be checked for code compliance. Inspections occur during construction or remodeling. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the state board of nursing, and the Joint Commission do not need to be contacted.
