Current law requires a newly hired or assigned Department of Family and Protective Services employee to complete the new employee adult protective services training program before initiating an investigation of a report of alleged abuse, neglect, or exploitation of an elderly person or a person with a disability or providing protective services to such a person. Senate Bill 2261 amends the Human Resources Code to establish an exception to that requirement for a newly hired or assigned employee who is in the process of receiving the required training and who initiates the investigation or provides protective services under the direct supervision of the person providing the training.
