AI Summary
This bill amends the Public Health Law to require operators of nursing homes to provide more transparency and notification to residents, staff, and the long-term care ombudsman regarding certain contracts, agreements, and changes in the facility's ownership, management, or operations. The bill sets out specific requirements for nursing home operators to notify relevant parties about applications to incorporate or establish a nursing home, changes in common or familial ownership of service providers, and the sale or transfer of the nursing home's real property or operations. The bill also establishes criteria for the Public Health and Health Planning Council to consider when approving nursing home applications and requires new owners or operators to retain existing staff for a transition period.
