If a person admitted to a division facility is discharged or leaves and the person fails to recover personal property worth more than $100 in the custody of the administrative officer of the facility, the administrative officer shall notify the former consumer or the consumer's legal representative in writing that personal property remains in the custody of the facility. The property must be held in safekeeping for the consumer for a period of 1 year from the date of discharge. If upon the expiration of the 1-year period no claim has been made upon the administrative officer by the person or the person's legal representative, another notice must be sent to the person or the person's legal representative, stating that personal property remains in the custody of the facility, and specifying the manner in which the property will be disposed of if not claimed within 15 business days. After 15 business days, the property may be considered unclaimed property and be disposed of in the manner provided for unclaimed property of deceased persons under the provisions of NRS 435.625.
