1. Each state personal assistance program must make available, within a reasonable period after receiving a request therefor and in accordance with any conditions upon the receipt of federal funding and considering the amount of reasonably adequate state funding, community-based services to provide minimum essential personal assistance to residents of this State with severe functional disabilities who would, with the provision of that assistance, be able to live safely and independently in their communities outside of an institutional setting.
2. The provisions of NRS 426.721 to 426.729, inclusive, must not be construed to:
(a) Prevent a person with a severe functional disability from receiving more than 6 hours of minimum essential personal assistance per day from a state personal assistance program if such assistance is available pursuant to the program; or
(b) Prevent a person with a disability other than a severe functional disability from receiving services from a state personal assistance program if such assistance is available pursuant to the program.
