Massachusetts H615 aims to enhance care quality in nursing homes by ensuring residents' access to technology and social activities.

Massachusetts H615 seeks to improve care quality in nursing homes by mandating facilities to adopt policies that enable residents to engage in social interactions and recreational activities. This includes providing technology and equipment to facilitate communication and participation in activities, especially for residents with disabilities. The bill also requires facilities to maintain sufficient staffing levels and ensure residents have access to assistive technology. Non-compliant facilities face administrative penalties and potential adverse licensure actions.
