What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill increases funding to the Department of Health Services for fiscal year

2016-17 to authorize four additional full-time equivalent positions for the

department for dementia care specialists in aging and disability resource centers in

counties with a population under 150,000. The bill requires the department to

maintain existing staffing levels for dementia care specialists, plus the new positions

authorized under this bill. The bill also increases funding to the department for fiscal

year 2016-17 to authorize one additional full-time equivalent position for the

department for training of dementia care specialists in aging and disability resource

centers, including educating employers about issues related to dementia in their

employees and family members of employees. Under the bill, the department is

required to submit a report to the joint committee on finance by July 1, 2017,

regarding activities related to this employer education training position.
