HB 592 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

HEALTH CARE/PROVIDERS: Provides relative to workplace violence in healthcare settings

This bill amends a specific state law regarding workplace violence in healthcare settings by correcting a reference to the correct legal code section. The change updates the citation from R.S. 40:1185.3 to R.S. 40:1183.3 to ensure the existing provisions on preventing workplace violence are accurately cited. This procedural adjustment affects healthcare facilities and providers by aligning the text with the proper statute governing safety in medical environments. No new rules or penalties are introduced; the bill solely serves to fix a clerical error in the legal reference.
