An Act to ensure senior home safety and security

This bill requires senior housing facilities in Massachusetts to provide security services around the clock to protect residents. It defines security services as either hiring a licensed watch or guard agency or employing trained staff who monitor for unlawful activity, prevent theft, and control access to the premises. The law explicitly excludes law enforcement officers from providing these specific services and mandates that all facility employees receive safety and security training. Additionally, the Secretary of Public Safety and Security is authorized to create detailed regulations for implementation in consultation with various state agencies and law enforcement groups.
