For those that live in CA and didn't know ... the Fall updates are out and the FIRST thing they mention is the new immunization requirement bill for kids AND adults/staff. They also mention other new laws/changes.
Here's the skinny (bills that effect FCC) ...
Bill SB 277, will require all children attending day care or school based programs to be immunized and will eliminate
personal/religious belief exemptions. This bill is effective in January 2016.
Bill SB 792 will require all staff to show proof of immunization for influenza, pertussis, and measles.
The actual plan on how licensing will implement these two bills won't available until January 2016 and will be posted on the DSS website.
AB-1207 was signed October 1 2015 and requires that beginning January 1, 2018 all child care providers, administrators and employees must complete mandated reporter training on the detection and reporting of child abuse in addition to the 15 hours of health and safety training (CPR, first aid, preventative safety).
AB 2236 became effective July 1, 2015, and increased the amount of the citation for a violation that results in the death, or serious injury, of a child at a care facility. It also mentions the fees for other infractions.
The update also mentions car seats. I was under the impression that the new car seat law that passed required all children under 2 years sit rear facing starting Jan 2016, the update ad the CHP website say Jan 2017 but I've seen in other sites that it's 2016. Help?
