Here's Sen. Ryan McDougle's underlying bill that was amended in the House of Delegates.
Here's a link to the description and history of the bill - along with the vote count, and here's a secnd link to see how small the amendment really was that was offered by the House.
Board of Health; regulation of facilities. Requires the Board of Health to promulgate regulations containing minimum standards for policies related to infection prevention, disaster preparedness, and facility security of hospitals, nursing homes, and certified nursing facilities. This bill provides that minimum standards for construction, maintenance, operation, staffing, equipping, staff qualifications and training, conditions under which services may be provided, as well as requirements for policies related to infection prevention, disaster preparedness, and facility security for hospitals, nursing homes, and certified nursing facilities shall also apply to any facility in which five or more first trimester abortions per month are performed, and that such facilities shall be classified as a category of hospital for the purposes of such requirements. This bill requires the Board of Health to promulgate regulations to implement the provisions of this act within 280 days of enactment.
We can believe we are being self-reliant and independent, and yet there is still clearly an overarching destiny, a Great Maker.
