At the time of, or before, the execution of a contract to provide continuing care, or the transfer of money or other property to an operator by or on behalf of a prospective resident, whichever occurs first, the operator shall deliver a current disclosure statement to the person with whom the contract is to be entered into, the text of which must contain at least the information required by the department. The department may require a disclosure of all or part of the information submitted pursuant to Section 37-11-30(B) or a summary of the information.
Every continuing care retirement community shall establish and maintain a complaint system which is approved by the department to provide reasonable procedures for the resolution of written complaints initiated by residents. A complaint system established pursuant to other governmental requirements satisfies the requirements of this section if all residents are aware of and may use the system. A copy of all written complaints handled through this system and the average time taken to resolve a complaint must accompany an application to renew a license.
