Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Counties Code, the Abuse Prevention Review Team Act, and the Nursing Home Care Act. Requires a nursing home administrator to notify the coroner or medical examiner within 24 hours of the death of a nursing home resident; makes a failure to do so a Class A misdemeanor. Provides for a single Residential Health Care Facility Resident Sexual Assault And Death Review Team instead of multiple review teams. Requires the Review Team to review a nursing home resident's death (i) if the resident's death results in the Department of Public Health issuing a notice of violation under the Nursing Home Care Act (instead of if the Department found that the resident's care violated federal or State standards within the 6 months preceding the resident's death) or (ii) if the resident's death was reported to the coroner or medical examiner as required under certain provisions of the Nursing Home Care Act (instead of if the resident's care was the subject of a complaint to the Department). Requires the Department to include the Review Team's activities in its annual Long-Term Care Report to the General Assembly. Extends the repeal of the Abuse Prevention Review Team Act from July 1, 2006 to July 1, 2011. Makes other changes. Amends the Open Meetings Act and the Freedom of Information Act to make conforming changes. Effective immediately.
