CO HB1107

Department of Public Health and Environment must create a dementia care services information form by January 1, 2027, requiring licensed facilities that offer dementia/memory care services to disclose staff training requirements, restraint guidelines, security features, fee schedules, and payment sources accepted

Beginning July 1, 2027, dementia care facilities must provide the completed form to anyone seeking services, publish it on their website, keep it current, and maintain it on premises for inspection; failure to comply constitutes a deceptive trade practice under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act

Licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and certified nurse aides (CNAs) may administer medication by injection as part of medication administration programs after completing education and training requirements established by the department in consultation with the state board of nursing

Facilities cannot require a registered nurse to be on-site as a condition for LPNs or CNAs to administer medication by injection, nor can they prohibit trained LPNs or CNAs from administering injections

Expands the definition of facilities eligible for medication administration programs to include all facilities and agencies licensed by the Department of Public Health and Environment
