Digest

Specifies that the adult protective services reporting applies to reports received through a statewide toll free telephone call or through online reporting. Requires an adult protective services unit (unit) to investigate and determine whether a report is to be referred to law enforcement or another agency for investigation. Removes language specifying entities to be informed of an endangered adult report. Removes language requiring the prosecuting attorneys council of Indiana to concur on standards of practice concerning services provided by the unit. Removes language that required the division of aging to maintain nonidentifying statistical records concerning unsubstantiated reports about endangered adults. Authorizes the division to determine when endangered adult reports may be made available and only requires the alleged victim to give consent of the release. (Current law requires all parties to give consent.) Requires the unit to share appropriate information to coordinate and implement services. Removes language that allowed a prosecuting attorney or head of a governmental entity to give written permission for a unit or staff member to be designated as a representative.
