§ 1430.24. Access to group homes
A. Residents of group homes subject to the Group Homes for Persons with Developmental or Physical Disabilities Act may receive any guest or visitor in the group home during reasonable hours as long as the visit does not infringe upon the rights of other group home residents. Any guest or visitor entering a group home shall promptly notify the staff on duty of their presence and shall, upon request, produce identification to establish their identity. No such person shall enter the immediate living area of any resident without first identifying oneself and then receiving permission from the resident to enter. The rights of other residents present in the room shall be respected. A resident may terminate at any time a visit by a person having access to the living area of the resident pursuant to this section.
C. The provider or licensee may refuse access to the group home to any person if the presence of that person in the group home would be injurious to the health and safety of a resident or would threaten the security of the property of a resident or the group home, or if the person seeks access to the group home for commercial purposes.
