What is the required advance notice period for a licensee's intention to change a shared physical establishment?

The requirement for a licensee to provide advance notice when intending to change a shared physical establishment is established to ensure that all parties involved, including regulatory bodies and clients, are adequately informed of changes that might impact service delivery. The correct notice period is 60 days, which is designed to give adequate time for regulatory approval processes and to allow for any necessary adjustments by all concerned parties.

This period ensures that transitions in funeral establishments are smooth and minimizes disruptions in service. It also allows for adequate time for investigations or inquiries that could arise from a change in the establishment, ensuring compliance with state laws and regulations. The importance of notifying regulatory authorities and other relevant stakeholders cannot be overstated, as it maintains the integrity of the funeral service industry standards and practices within Pennsylvania.
