An Act relative to the administration of anti-psychotic or other psychotropic substances to nursing home residents

This bill defines "psychotropic" medications (including antipsychotics, antidepressants, and similar drugs) for nursing home use. It requires nursing homes to submit quarterly reports on these medications to federal health programs, publicly post the reports online, and document in resident care plans the prescriber's details, evaluation date, reasons for use, and proof of informed consent. Failure to submit reports may result in fines or suspension of new admissions. The law directly affects nursing homes, residents receiving psychotropic medications, and their guardians.
