§ 4101 State Hospital Uniform Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •All state hospitals must follow the same rules set by the State Department of State Hospitals.
  • •These rules apply to how the hospitals are run and managed.
  • •If there’s a special rule for a specific hospital, that rule overrides the general ones.

Example

A state hospital wants to change how it gives out medicine to patients.

The hospital can’t just make its own rules—it has to follow the same rules as all other state hospitals, unless there’s a special law that says otherwise.
