Summary
The bill establishes a set of nondiscrimination rights for anyone living in a long‑term care facility or receiving home‑care services in Illinois. It requires facilities and providers to give clear notices, keep client records that reflect chosen names and gender identities, and train staff on LGBTQ+ and HIV issues. Violations can be sued in civil court and the law amends several existing health‑care statutes to enforce these protections.
