In short, these laws regulate a health facility, home, or agency.

Before operating a care facility in Nevada, obtaining a surety bond is required.
The face amount of the surety bond required will be determined by the number of employees at the facility.
The amount of this bond will be a minimum of $5000 and have a maximum of $50,000.
The amounts are determined as follows:
If there are less than 7 employees, the bond is for $5000.00;
If there are between 7 and 25 employees, the bond required is $25,000;
If there are more than 25 employees, the bond required is $50,000.
The cost of this bond, issued to run concurrently with the license issued by the state of Nevada, will be dependent on two criteria:
The bond face amount (i.e. $5,000 or $25,000);
And
The applicant’s credit score.
Of note, is that while the bond amounts are between $5,000 and $50,000, an applicant will pay only a small percentage of that amount.
