NURS HOME-HOSPTL-FLU-VACCINATE

Amends the University of Illinois Hospital Act, the Nursing Home Care Act, the ID/DD Community Care Act, the Specialized Mental Health Rehabilitation Act, and the Hospital Licensing Act. Requires the University of Illinois Hospital and other hospitals to adopt an influenza and pneumococcal immunization policy that includes procedures for offering immunization against influenza virus when available between September 1 and April 1, and against pneumococcal disease upon admission or discharge, to patients unless contraindicated (removes language limiting the provision to patients age 65 or older). Provides that the immunizations shall be offered in accordance with the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that are most recent to the time of vaccination. Provides that long term care facilities, ID/DD facilities, and specialized mental health rehabilitation facilities shall administer or arrange for administration of a pneumococcal vaccination to each resident (instead of each resident who is age 65 and over).
