§ 116100 Department Definition

• •This part of the law defines what 'department' means in a specific section.
• •Here, 'department' refers to the State Department of Health Services.
• •This definition is only used in Article 5 of Chapter 2.

Imagine you're reading a school rulebook, and it says 'the office' means the principal's office.

Just like that, in this law, whenever you see the word 'department,' it means the State Department of Health Services.
