Existing law vests in the State Department of Developmental Services jurisdiction over state hospitals referred to as developmental centers for the provision of residential care to persons with developmental disabilities. Existing law requires a developmental center to immediately report all resident deaths and serious injuries of unknown origin to the appropriate local law enforcement agency. Existing law establishes the Office of Protective Services within the State Department of Developmental Services. This bill would rename a certain position within the Office of Protective Services as the Director of Protective Services, require the director to meet specified qualifications, and require that the director be appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the Secretary of California Health and Human Services, as specified. This bill would require the department to report certain events involving death or harm involving a developmental center resident to a designated protection and advocacy agency. The bill also would require the State Department of State Hospitals to report the same categories of events to the protection and advocacy agency, with respect to a resident of a state mental hospital. Existing law requires specified people, known as mandated reporters, to report cases of elder or dependent adult abuse, as defined. Failure to make a report as required by existing law is a misdemeanor. This bill would require mandated reporters in the State Department of Developmental Services to immediately report suspected abuse to the Office of Protective Services or to the local law enforcement agency. By creating new duties for local officials, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. By expanding the scope of an existing crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 4427.5 of the Welfare and Institutions Code proposed by SB 1522, to be operative only if SB 1522 and this bill are both enacted, both bills become effective on or before January 1, 2013, and this bill is enacted last. This bill would also incorporate additional changes to Section 15630 of the Welfare and Institutions Code proposed by AB 40, to be operative only if AB 40 and this bill are both enacted, both bills become effective on or before January 1, 2013, and this bill is enacted last. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason. With regard to any other mandates, this bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs so mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
