Amends the Medical Assistance Article of the Illinois Public Aid Code. In provisions concerning the supportive living facilities program, provides that a facility selected by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to participate in the supportive living facilities program may employ direct support persons who are at least 18 years of age and have successfully completed a direct support persons training program, approved by the Department of Human Services, within 120 days of their date of hire or the date they were first assigned direct support responsibilities at the facility. Requires the facility to check the Department of Public Health's Health Care Worker Registry to verify that an individual hired to provide direct support services is listed on the Registry as eligible to work for a health care employer. Provides that the responsibilities of a direct support person hired in accordance with the amendatory Act shall include, but not be limited to: (i) following and helping to carry out a facility resident's written service plan; (ii) providing personal care services to facility residents, including, but not limited to, bathing, eating, dressing, personal hygiene, grooming, toileting, ambulation, medication reminders, and assistance with transfer; (iii) observing a facility resident's functioning, maintaining written records of those observations, and reporting any changes to a licensed nurse on duty at the facility; and (iv) attending initial training and in-service training sessions and staff conferences.
