The Texas Nursing and Convalescent Home Act, passed by the
65th Legislature during the First Called Session, placed nurs-
ing homes under the jurisdiction of the Department of Health
rather than the Department of Human Resources, as they was
earlier. The act also required annual unannounced inspections
before licenses can be renewed and yearly medical examina-
tions of all residents. Further, the legislation mandated annual
meetings to allow residents an opportunity to voice com-
plaints. Records of complaints against the facility and
employees are open to the public. The Department of Health
proposes amendments to the rules governing nursing and con-
valescent homes. In addition to defining the procedure for in-
spection of public records concerning the homes, amendments
proposed will change regulations governing personnel re-
sponsible for residents care and the medical examinations pa-
tients are to receive.
The Texas Department of Agriculture amends seed certifica-
tion standards to bring them into conformity with the certifica-
tion requirements of the Federal Seed Act. The amendments
change arrowleaf clover to include clovers of all kinds and add
sunflowers as a type of crop.' '- , .'-.
