AN ACT IMPROVING STANDARDS FOR REHABILITATION FACILITIES AND ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES IN THE STATE.

SB 490 (2025) sets new standards for rehabilitation and assisted living facilities in the state. It directly affects residents of these facilities and the facilities themselves by requiring enhanced staffing in rehabilitation centers, mandatory emergency protocols in assisted living facilities, and transparent pricing for assisted living services. The bill also mandates rehabilitation facilities to create individualized mobility plans for residents, conduct daily movement and therapy sessions, and provide routine foot care to prevent mobility issues. These provisions aim to improve safety, care quality, and affordability for facility residents through concrete regulatory changes.
