Bill > S07815

This bill amends the Social Services Law in New York to make several changes related to child day care providers. The key provisions are: 1. It requires child day care providers to openly display their license and the number of household members living in the home where child day care is being provided. Providers must disclose this information immediately upon request. 2. It mandates that all inspections of child day care premises must include a visual inspection of every room and closet. 3. It requires all staff employed to accept registrations, issue licenses, or conduct inspections of child day care facilities to receive training on recognizing the presence of controlled substances and paraphernalia. 4. It requires all child day care providers to provide and maintain onsite opioid antagonists (e.g., naloxone) for use in emergencies, and it directs state agencies to provide information to providers and parents on obtaining overdose prevention training and free opioid antagonists. 5. It adds a requirement for child day care staff to receive training on overdose prevention. Overall, the bill aims to improve safety and oversight of child day care facilities in New York, particularly with regard to opioid overdose prevention.
