Residential care facilities for the elderly: categorization of citations.
Chaptered by Secretary of State. Chapter 994, Statutes of 2026.
Summary
Starting July 1, 2027, the Department of Social Services must classify any substantiated abuse violation in a residential care facility for the elderly according to the categories defined in the Elder Abuse and Dependent Adult Civil Protection Act. The classification—such as physical abuse, neglect, or financial abuse—must be recorded in the department’s public transparency database. This adds a reporting requirement but does not change the department’s existing penalty powers.
