Webinars

In this kickoff to the “Don’t Panic!” series, Dr. David Bliss introduces AB 2511 and the new power resiliency standards facing skilled nursing facilities. This foundational webinar outlines what’s required, what constitutes compliance, and the basic options facilities have for meeting the 96-hour backup power mandate.
Designed for SNF administrators, compliance officers, and healthcare facility engineers just beginning their AB 2511 planning journey.

⏱️ Chapters:
00:00 – Welcome & Webinar Overview
01:30 – Understanding AB 2511 and Legislative Intent
03:00 – What Counts as “Alternate Power”?
05:00 – Overview of Facility Assessment Process
07:00 – Options for Compliance: Existing Generators, Upgrades, Microgrids
09:00 – Timeline and Regulatory Expectations
12:00 – Key Stakeholders: CDPH, HCAI, Fire Code
15:00 – Resources & Planning Next Steps
