Bill overview
This bill would strengthen protections for residents of residential care facilities for the elderly (RCFEs) during eviction proceedings. It would require RCFEs to provide residents with longer notice periods – 30, 60, or 90 days – depending on their length of residency. The bill also mandates that eviction notices include detailed information about discharge plans, resident needs, and available resources, and requires notification to the local long-term care ombudsman. Failure to comply with these provisions could result in civil and criminal penalties.
