Illinois SB2879 modifies the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act to expand the roles of healthcare professionals involved in resident assessments. The bill allows advanced practice registered nurses, in addition to physicians and physician assistants, to complete comprehensive assessments for residents. These assessments must occur prior to residency, annually, and when a change in the resident's condition is identified. The service plans developed from these assessments must be approved by the resident's physician, physician assistant, or advanced practice registered nurse.
