Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to assisted living facility operations and provision of certain services to assisted living facility residents without a license; creating a criminal offense.
AI Summary
This bill creates two new criminal offenses related to assisted living facilities in Texas. The first offense makes it illegal for a person who is required to have a license to provide personal assistance services to residents of an assisted living facility without actually holding that license. The second offense criminalizes operating an assisted living facility without the proper licensing. For both offenses, the penalty is initially a Class A misdemeanor, but if the person has a previous conviction for the same offense, it becomes a third-degree felony. This legislation aims to ensure that individuals and facilities providing care to vulnerable populations in assisted living settings are properly licensed and regulated, with legal consequences for those who operate outside of the established licensing requirements. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, giving potential operators and service providers time to comply with the new legal standards.
