Amends the Nursing Home Care Act. Provides that "emergency" means a situation, physical condition or one or more practices, methods or operations which present imminent danger of death or serious physical or mental harm to residents of a facility, as provided in the clinical documentation of the resident in his or her medical record (rather than a situation, physical condition or one or more practices, methods or operations which present imminent danger of death or serious physical or mental harm to residents of a facility).

Requires the demonstrated need to be revisited in every comprehensive assessment of the resident.
