The department may revoke or deny a license for any of the reasons permitted in law, or any combination of reasons. A revocation or denial based on more than one reason must be affirmed, on appeal, if the evidence supports any reason given for revocation or denial. A provider who receives a notice of revocation, and who makes a timely appeal of that notice, may continue to operate the facility pending a final administrative appeal decision, unless the revocation is based upon reasons which present an imminent danger to the health, welfare, or safety of residents or unless the license expires.
