H.B. No. 2358 is a legislative act that focuses on the training requirements for long-term care facility surveyors, personnel, and providers, as well as ICF-IID program providers, under the Health and Human Services Commission. The bill repeals several existing provisions, specifically Section 247.066(h) of the Health and Safety Code, Section 533A.066 of the Health and Safety Code, and Sections 22.039(b-1) and (b-2) of the Human Resources Code.

The act is designed to streamline and update the training protocols for those involved in long-term care services, ensuring that they meet current standards and practices. It will take effect immediately if it receives a two-thirds majority vote from both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will become effective on September 1, 2025. The bill has already passed both the House and Senate with significant support.
