The Florida Senate has passed a bill to begin a pilot program to place CCTV cameras in two nursing homes for a year. The bill now goes to the Florida House for consideration.
The bill calls for the cameras to be placed in two volunteer nursing homes; however, if there are no volunteers, legislators can choose which two will be monitored, according to previous track record.
Bob Asztalos, director of the Florida Health Care Association, told The St. Petersburg Times that putting cameras in nursing homes will only make it more difficult for the homes to retain staffers.
