Bill > A01508

This bill amends the New York State social services law to enhance first aid and enrollment requirements for child day care centers. Specifically, the bill requires that each day care center's first aid kit must now include antiseptic or antibacterial ointment, expanding the current regulations around safety and health standards. Additionally, the bill mandates that when a child enrolls in a day care center, the provider must supply medication consent forms and a copy of their health care plan, either in paper or electronic format. These new requirements aim to improve child safety by ensuring day care centers have appropriate medical supplies on-site and that parents have clear documentation about the center's health procedures and medication protocols. The bill will take effect 90 days after becoming law, giving day care centers time to update their first aid kits and enrollment documentation to comply with the new standards.
