Enacts the "Jamie Rose care provider act"
This bill requires health care facilities (excluding hospitals) like home care agencies, hospices, and health maintenance organizations to create written policies for identifying, assessing, and referring suspected domestic violence victims. It mandates staff training for clinical and security personnel and directs facilities to coordinate with local domestic violence victim assistance organizations. Facilities must inform victims about available support services and arrange for advocates if requested. The law applies directly to covered health care providers and their staff, aiming to improve response to domestic abuse cases within these settings.
