Adult care facility closures must include a notice to the public and relevant officials.

The bill amends the social services law to require the Department of Health to provide notice of adult care facility closures. This includes a summary of violations, the impact on residents, and the facility operator's plan for continued care. The notice must be sent to the governor, state comptroller, attorney general, and local officials. The notice is exempt from public disclosure laws and does not include personal identifying information. The bill also mandates that the department post the closure notice on its website 30 days before the hearing.
