TDHS had adopted a rule change with regard to criminal history for the four types of businesses named above. Prior to May 1, 2002, an applicant for licensure had to disclose convictions of moral turpitude. Because there is no clear definition of what a conviction of moral turpitude is, TDHS decided to clarify what convictions must be disclosed. According to the new rule, applicants for licensure for the above businesses must now disclose any state or federal convictions for any offense that imposes a penalty of incarceration.
