HCS/SS/SB 118 - This act modifies provisions relating to long-term care facilities. Current law requires long-term care facilities to install and maintain an approved sprinkler system by December 31,2012. This act extends the 2012 implementation date requirement to 2014. (Section 198.074) This act removes a reference to a current state regulation regarding administrative, personnel and resident care requirements for new and existing residential care facilities in the definition of "appropriately trained and qualified individual" as it relates long-term care facilities and instead provides that such appropriately trained and qualified individual shall have received facility orientation training as required by Chapter 198, RSMo. (Section 198.006). ADRIANE CROUSE HA 1- REPEALS THE DECEMBER 31, 2013, DATE TO INSTALL AN APPROVED COMMERCIAL SPRINKLER SYSTEM FOR THOSE FACILITIES THAT WOULD HAVE TAKEN A SUBSTANTIAL STEP TO INSTALL A SYSTEM BY DECEMBER 31, 2012, BY APPLYING FOR A LOAN FROM THE STATE TREASURER'S OFFICE.
