Establishes caseload standards for adult protective services workers to ensure they handle no more than thirty cases at any time.

This bill amends the social services law to set caseload standards for adult protective services workers, limiting them to no more than thirty ongoing cases at any given time. It also mandates that the Office of Children and Family Services establish regulations in consultation with local social services districts. These regulations must include guidelines on assigning investigations based on the worker's current caseload and the complexity of the case. The commissioner is required to include a report on adult protective services in the annual report to the governor and legislature.
