The owners or operators of a Private Non-Medical Institution must prudently manage and operate a PNMI of adequate quality to meet its residents' needs. Neither the issuance of a per diem rate, nor final orders made by the Commissioner, nor a duly authorized representative may in any way relieve the owner or operator of a PNMI from full responsibility for compliance with the requirements and standards of the Department or Federal requirements and standards.
