OAR 309-118-0060
States of Emergency, Public Health Emergencies, Epidemics, Quarantines and Isolation

In case of a state of emergency or public health emergency, or where OSH has designated quarantine or isolation units in response to a communicable disease outbreak or epidemic, patients or their representative will continue to receive a written response to the grievance or grievance review within the timeframes as set out in OAR 309-118-0020 (Grievance Process) and 309-118-0025 (Emergency Grievances, Civil Rights Complaints or Abuse Allegations), unless due to the state of emergency, notification is not possible.
(1) Information will be posted in common areas, and a written notice will be provided to the patient notifying that a state of emergency or public health emergency has been declared, or that a communicable disease outbreak or epidemic has caused OSH to designate and use quarantine and isolation units;
(2) Once the state of emergency or public health emergency has been terminated, or in the case of a communicable disease outbreak or epidemic, OSH has determined quarantine and isolation units are no longer required to protect the health and safety of patients and staff, the grievance and grievance review process will revert to the original process as outlined in the rules set out in OAR 309-118-0020 (Grievance Process) and 309-118-0025 (Emergency Grievances, Civil Rights Complaints or Abuse Allegations).
