Maddy summaryThis bill requires the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to create a mandatory training and education program for licensed long-term care facilities. The program would cover essential topics such as infection control, fall prevention, abuse prevention, and communication with primary care physicians. Facilities would receive annual training on licensure rules, biannual updates on common safety deficiencies, and joint sessions with state inspectors to discuss new expectations. Before implementing any new regulations or training materials, the department must consult with industry trade associations.
