About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the patient trust bond actually covers

Care facilities often hold small sums of residents’ personal funds — spending money, allowances, trust accounts. Nevada requires a surety bond under NRS 449.065 so those funds are protected if the facility mishandles them. The bond is filed with the Division of Public and Behavioral Health at initial license and renewal.

The amount scales with the size of the facility by employee count: $5,000 for facilities with fewer than 7 employees, $25,000 for 7 to 25 employees, and $50,000 for more than 25 employees. The bond runs with the facility as principal and a surety company as surety.

A license is suspended by operation of law if the facility is no longer covered by the required bond (or an approved substitute deposit under NRS 449.067). It is a guarantee, not insurance for you — if the surety pays a valid claim for misused resident funds, you repay the surety. We confirm your tier and issue it at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull.

What does the bond protect? +
Residents’ personal funds the facility holds — spending money, allowances and trust accounts. If the facility mishandles those funds, a claim can be paid from the bond, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It's the only extra step beyond the application, and it informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way.
What happens if my bond lapses? +
Your facility license is suspended by operation of law if you are no longer covered by the required bond or an approved substitute deposit under NRS 449.067. We track the bond and notify you ahead of expiration so it stays continuous.
Which amount applies to my facility? +
It’s based on your employee count: $5,000 for fewer than 7 employees, $25,000 for 7 to 25, and $50,000 for more than 25. If you’re unsure, confirm with the Division of Public and Behavioral Health and we’ll issue that amount.
