Bill Summary
AN ACT Amending title 36, chapter 4, article 1, Arizona Revised Statutes, by adding section 36-420.06; relating to health care institutions.
AI Summary
This bill requires assisted living facilities and nursing care institutions in Arizona to disclose to the Department of Health Services (DHS) whether they permit residents to install electronic monitoring devices in their rooms, if the facility itself uses such devices in common areas, or if they employ technology to track who enters and exits a resident's room and their activity within it. This disclosure must be made by December 1, 2026, or upon initial licensure, and any changes to these policies must also be reported to DHS. The DHS will then make this information publicly available on its website. The bill defines "electronic monitoring" as the use of a device to record or transmit sounds or activity for the resident or their representative, and an "electronic monitoring device" as any technology that captures, records, or broadcasts audio or video for this purpose.
