The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 1121, aims to enhance the protection of residents' rights in continuing-care retirement facilities by establishing a clear enforcement mechanism for any violations of these rights. Specifically, it seeks to amend section 17b-523a of the general statutes to include provisions that will allow for the enforcement of these rights, ensuring that residents have a means to address grievances effectively.
The bill does not specify any deletions from current law but focuses on the insertion of new legal language that outlines the enforcement process. This initiative is intended to strengthen the legal framework surrounding the rights of individuals in such facilities, thereby promoting better living conditions and accountability within the retirement care sector.
