39-111. State legal residence requirements; waiver, when.
No person shall be admitted to a state hospital, a state hospital and training center, Kansas neurological institute, an institution for the education of the deaf, or an institution for the education of the blind, who has not lived in the state of Kansas at least one year continuously immediately prior to application for admission thereto. The residence of a minor child shall follow and be the same as the child's parents. The secretary for children and families or the secretary for aging and disability services, as applies, may waive the residence requirement in cases where the residence cannot be ascertained, or where the particular circumstances of the case constitute a medical emergency so that in the secretary's judgment a sufficient reason exists for the temporary suspension of the residence requirement.
