A chronic and convalescent nursing home or a rest home with nursing supervision may extend the maximum time span between the patient's evening meal and breakfast from fourteen hours to sixteen hours provided such extension of the time span meets the requirements of 42 CFR 483.35(f)(4). A chronic and convalescent nursing home or a rest home with nursing supervision, when providing bedtime nourishment to patients as required by the Public Health Code, shall verbally offer such nourishment to patients and shall not be required to serve such nourishment to patients who decline such nourishment. In accordance with section 19a-36, the Commissioner of Public Health shall amend the Public Health Code in conformity with the provisions of this section.
