House Bill 724, also known as Senate Bill 1196, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 68-11-232, to introduce a new provision for assisted-care living facilities. The bill allows these facilities, upon approval from the board for licensing health care facilities, to meet requirements for posting information by providing it on an electronic screen that is clearly visible to both residents and the public.
This change aims to modernize the way information is disseminated in assisted-care living facilities, potentially improving accessibility and communication for residents and visitors. The act is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in its implementation.
