Mental health: recipient rights; members employed by licensed hospital; prohibit from serving on the recipient rights advisory committee. Amends sec. 758 of 1974 PA 258 (MCL 330.1758).

This bill prohibits individuals who are current or former board members of a licensed hospital, as well as their family members, from serving on the hospital's recipient rights advisory committee. The legislation aims to ensure that these committees, which are made up largely of patients and their families, remain independent and free from conflicts of interest. It requires hospitals to maintain these committees, which must meet regularly, review hospital reports, and provide advice to hospital leadership. Additionally, all committee members must complete annual training provided by the state office of recipient rights.
