Summary

Official abstract published by the California legislature· summary

Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facilities serving adults by the State Department of Health Care Services, as prescribed. Existing law prohibits the operation, establishment, management, conduct, or maintenance of an alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facility to provide recovery, treatment, or detoxification services within this state without first obtaining a current valid license. This bill would, when the department receives a complaint against a licensed alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facility, or a complaint alleging that a facility is unlawfully operating without a license, from a member of the public, require the department to provide, within 10 days of the date of the complaint, notice to the person filing the complaint that the complaint has been received and to provide, upon closing the complaint, notice to the person filing the complaint that the complaint has been closed and whether the department found the facility to be in violation of the provisions governing facility licensure and regulation.
