This bill prohibits any rule or regulation relating to assisted living or residential care facilities from requiring a prospective employee to be assessed by a physician in order to be employed by the facility.
Current law prescribes the process that must be followed when it has been determined that an assisted living or residential care facility is not in substantial compliance with a standard or standards. This bill provides that the Department of Health and Senior Services does not need to make public the noncompliance, and the facility does not need to post any notice of noncompliance, if the noncompliance is corrected within 24 hours of receipt of the notice, and no resident experienced physical harm before the noncompliance's correction.
