Summary
This Substitute Bill requires the Department of Health and Social Services to maintain a public registry of assisted living facilities that are accredited and/or certified to provide memory care services by an approved independent accrediting organization. This Act also authorizes DHSS to promulgate rules and regulations to carry out these provisions, and it defines memory care services and secured memory care unit. Violations of this Act are subject to enforcement actions under Chapter 11 of Title 16 and are a basis for the nonrenewal of a facility’s license. This bill also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
