Minnesota bill to protect LGBTQIA2S+ and HIV rights in long-term care and home care settings.
The bill modifies Minnesota Statutes to enhance rights and protections for LGBTQIA2S+ and HIV residents in long-term care settings and clients in home care services. It mandates that facilities take reasonable actions to prevent discrimination or harassment based on sexual orientation, gender identity, intersex status, two-spirit identity, or HIV status. Residents have the right to privacy, respectful treatment, and access to appropriate care without discrimination.
