SB 1775 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Establishes provisions relating to workplace violence in health care facilities and modifies provisions relating to assault in the fourth degree

SB 1775 creates new rules to prevent and address workplace violence against healthcare workers in hospitals and clinics. It directly affects healthcare facilities, staff, and individuals who commit violent acts in these settings. The bill modifies how assault charges apply when violence occurs in healthcare environments, potentially elevating penalties for such offenses. This is a substantive policy change focused on worker safety and legal accountability, not a procedural or commemorative measure.
