House Bill No. 2262 amends the Alzheimer's Dementia and Other Forms of Dementia Special Care Disclosure Act to enhance transparency and accountability for facilities that provide care for individuals with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. The bill requires nursing facilities, residential care facilities, assisted living facilities, adult day care centers, and special care facilities to disclose specific information about the type of care they provide, including their overall philosophy, staff training, resident activities, and fees. A new provision mandates that referral agencies must provide a disclosure form for each recommended facility to representatives of individuals considering placement, ensuring that potential residents and their families have access to critical information.

Additionally, the bill establishes the Alzheimer-Dementia Disclosure Act Advisory Council, which will advise the State Commissioner of Health on the development of a standardized disclosure form and related rules. Facilities are required to post a complaint poster for residents and their families, informing them of their rights to file complaints if they do not receive the disclosure form. The Department of Health will maintain a website listing facilities that have submitted disclosure forms, including key information such as staffing ratios and accreditations. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
