Summary

SB291 would add new licensing fees for assisted living administrators, require annual admin fees for licensure, require reapplication after expiry, and expand the board's power to discipline licensees for certain crimes.

What This Bill Does

It creates a replacement license fee for lost or stolen licensing cards. It requires every applicant for licensure as an assisted living administrator to pay an annual administrative fee, and requires anyone with an expired license to reapply and pay a reapplication fee. It expands disciplinary authority so the board can discipline licensees who plead nolo contendere or are guilty of crimes including lewd or lascivious acts against a child or adult, inappropriate sexual conduct, or any crime with potential imprisonment over one year. It maintains existing renewal and continuing education requirements and adjusts related licensure provisions accordingly.

Who It Affects

• People applying for or currently holding an assisted living administrator license (and those with expired licenses), who would pay new fees and face possible discipline for certain crimes.
• The Board of Examiners of Assisted Living Administrators and related state agencies, which would set and collect fees, oversee licensure, and handle disciplinary actions.

Key Provisions

• Replace license fee for stolen, lost, or misplaced licensing cards.
• Annual administrative fee required for each person applying for licensure as an assisted living administrator.
• Reapplication fee required for individuals holding expired licenses who reapply for licensure.
• Board may discipline licensees for specified criminal pleas (nolo contendere, etc.) relating to lewd or lascivious acts, inappropriate sexual conduct, or crimes with potential imprisonment over one year, including actions like license revocation, suspension, or other discipline.
• Amendments to Sections 34-2A-2, 34-2A-8, 34-2A-11, 34-2A-12, and 34-2A-13 to implement these changes.
