400.56  Right of entry and inspection.--Any duly designated officer or employee of the agency or department has the right to enter the premises of any adult day care center licensed pursuant to this part, at any reasonable time, in order to determine the state of compliance with this part and the rules or standards in force pursuant to this part. The right of entry and inspection also extends to any premises that the agency has reason to believe are being operated as a center without a license, but no entry or inspection of any unlicensed premises may be made without the permission of the owner or operator unless a warrant is first obtained from the circuit court authorizing entry or inspection. Any application for a center license or license renewal made pursuant to this part constitutes permission for, and complete acquiescence in, any entry or inspection of the premises for which the license is sought in order to facilitate verification of the information submitted on or in connection with the application.
