New York S03510 mandates hospitals and healthcare facilities providing emergency services to create plans for accommodating service animals.
New York S03510 amends the civil rights law to require hospitals and healthcare facilities that provide emergency services to develop plans for reasonable accommodations for service animals. This includes providing a space or area to house the service animal until it can be picked up by a family member, designated person, or service animal agency, or until it can be reunited with the patient. The bill defines "service animal" as any animal partnered with a person who has a disability and trained to aid or guide them.
