Children: foster care; immunization requirements for foster families; modify. Amends sec. 5 of 1973 PA 116 (MCL 722.115).

HB 5990 modifies Michigan's child care licensing laws to clarify that foster family homes are not subject to the same licensing rules as standard child care centers. The bill requires foster families to provide a recent medical statement from a licensed physician or nurse practitioner confirming that no household member has a known condition that could affect a child's care, but it explicitly exempts these families from mandatory vaccination requirements for all household members. Additionally, the legislation outlines specific procedures for placing older children and adults with disabilities in various foster care settings, ensuring that such placements are reviewed periodically to confirm they remain in the best interests of the individuals involved.
