Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Senior Safety Rapid Response Act. Requires persons seeking admission to a senior facility licensed under the Nursing Home Care Act, the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act, or a supportive living facility as described in the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code, as well as participants in an adult day care services program governed by the Illinois Act on the Aging to undergo a criminal background check under the prescreening programs paid for by the Department on Aging or the Department of Human Services. Sets forth certain standards the pre-screener must comply with when conducting a criminal background check on a senior facility applicant. Requires a senior facility applicant to make certain disclosures. Contains provisions concerning conditional acceptance of a senior facility applicant; risk analysis and security plans; involuntary discharge or termination from the senior facility; notification of identified offenders; segregated programming; and civil immunity. Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Adds the Department on Aging to the list of State agencies entitled to specified information from the Department of Corrections regarding a person on parole or mandatory supervised release who becomes a resident of a senior facility or participant in a senior program regulated by the agency. Repeals provisions in the Nursing Home Care Act concerning screening prior to admission, criminal history analysis, and notification of identified offenders. Repeals a provision in the Nursing Home Care Act that repealed a provision requiring the Department of Public Health to determine the feasibility of requiring identified offenders that seek admission to a licensed facility to be segregated from other residents. Effective immediately.
