GFCI dedicated branch circuit

[necnyc]

In dwelling unit NEC requires bathroom GFCI outlets to be on a dedicated, 20 Amp circuit, with no other loads connected. In health care facility (such as nursing home) NEC requires to have GFCI protection for personnel and to be installed within 3 feet from sink. Does dedicated branch circuit requirement applies to this type of facility? Electrical contractor stated that ALL GFI's need to be on a "dedicated circuit" (bathrooms, pantry, housekeeping closet). I was not able to find any information that would prove his statement. Any clarification would be helpful. Thanks

210.11(C) (3) Exception - Will allow a slight variance.

In health care facility (such as nursing home) NEC requires to have GFCI protection for personnel and to be installed within 3 feet from sink.

Not required to provide receptacle outlets in those bathrooms, but those provided will need GFCI protection. 210.8(B)(1).

Does dedicated branch circuit requirement applies to this type of facility?

Nope.
