Summary
The bill changes the Nursing Home Care Act so that anyone admitted to a nursing home with a serious mental illness gets a follow‑up visit within 60 days and ongoing reviews after major health changes. It also requires regular re‑screenings and sets rules to prevent conflicts of interest for pre‑admission screeners. These steps aim to improve oversight and protect vulnerable residents.
