Bill Summary
RESIDENTIAL CARE AND ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES -- Amends existing law to provide an alternative to regular compliance inspections of residential care and assisted living facilities.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to provide an alternative to regular compliance inspections of residential care and assisted living facilities. The bill allows the Department of Health and Welfare to accept accreditation surveys from recognized accreditation organizations, such as the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) or the Joint Commission, instead of conducting regular compliance inspections. The department will not conduct on-site compliance inspections during the time the accreditation report is valid, except for complaint surveys, reportable incidents, or emergencies. The bill also defines key terms related to residential care and assisted living facilities, such as "accreditation," "accreditation commission," and "core issues."
