Bill Text
What changed in the latest version
12 added · 29 removedPlain-language change summary
The latest version of Bill HB 4700 updates the definition of "long term care facility" to include any facility licensed under the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act, which broadens the scope of the law to cover more types of care facilities. Additionally, it removes supportive living facilities from the definition of "domestic living situation," which may change how certain safeguards are applied. These changes are important because they aim to enhance protections for individuals in various care settings and clarify the types of facilities that are subject to oversight.
