Electronic Monitoring Devices in Long-term Care Facilities

Summary

The bill would permit a resident or their appointed representative to place a fixed‑position video‑only monitoring device in a nursing home or assisted‑living room, as long as the resident pays all costs and obtains written consent from any roommate. It also requires standardized notice and consent forms, prohibits facilities from denying admission or retaliating, and creates penalties for tampering, unauthorized viewing, or public posting of the footage.
