80 Notices asking care recipients to leave residential care services

(1) This section applies if: (a) before the transition time, an entity gave a notice (the original notice) to a care recipient under subsection 7(2) of the User Rights Principles stating that the entity had decided to ask the care recipient to leave a residential care service; and (b) the date specified in the original notice as the date on which the person is required to leave the residential care service is after the transition time. (2) The original notice is taken to be a notice (the new notice) under subsection 149‑65(1) of the new rules asking an individual to leave an approved residential care home. (3) The new notice is taken: (a) to have been given at the transition time; and (b) to specify the date stated in the original notice as the date on which the person is required to leave the residential care service as the date on which the individual is required to leave the approved residential care home. (4) To avoid doubt, nothing in this section is to be taken to require a continuity of care plan under paragraph 149‑65(1)(e) of the new rules to be included in the new notice.
