    Healthcare Facility Requirements

    The Residential Health Care Facility (RHCF) Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Review Program was introduced as a result of state legislation requiring certain health care facilities to prepare and annually update a comprehensive emergency management plan (CEMP). These facilities include:

    • Hospitals
    • Nursing Homes
    • Assisted Living Facilities (ALF)
    • Intermediate Care Facilities for the Developmentally Disabled (ICFDD)
    • Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASC)
    • Adult Day Care (ADC)

    State law requires that the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) develop and adopt minimum criteria for the CEMP. The law also requires that the CEMPs be reviewed and approved by the local Office of Emergency Management (OEM). For specific information on Florida Statute requirements visit FEPA.

    The dates for the RHCF orientations are the following:
