Allows nursing home residents to authorize monitoring devices in their rooms.
The bill, known as the "Nursing Home Virtual Visitation Act," allows residents of nursing homes to authorize the installation and use of monitoring devices in their rooms. It mandates that nursing homes notify residents of this right and offer them the option to have such devices installed. Residents or their legal representatives must give consent, and the nursing home must keep records of these choices.
