CA AB1356

Requires licensed alcohol and drug abuse recovery facilities to submit any relevant information about a resident's death not known at the time of initial reporting within 30 days of the incident

Mandates the State Department of Health Care Services to issue a written notice of deficiency to facilities if violations of licensing provisions are identified during death investigations

Establishes that deficiency notices must include instructions to address violations and specify timeframes for facility responses

Authorizes the department to implement these provisions through all-county letters, provider bulletins, or similar instructions without formal regulatory action

Named "John's Law" and builds on existing requirements for telephonic reports within 1 working day and written reports within 7 calendar days of a resident death
