Does any #lawfedi folk know, or have a contact that would know, about rules/restrictions regarding using a "granny cam" in a nursing or rehab facility? Reckon its state-specific, this would be New Jersey for what its worth.

Thanks!

@andrew @law I contacted NJ's long term care ombudsman about an issue oncr and they seemed helpful? https://www.nj.gov/ooie/

@andrew @law I deal with that on a regular basis in the Midwest, but it's very state specific, as you guessed. We have wildly different laws between Iowa and Minnesota.

Yeah I kind of figured. Here it seems you can rent them from the state, so an outright ban seems unlikely.

@andrew @law It generally comes down to a question of resident rights, particularly HIPAA privacy when it comes to cares. If it's a shared room, they're generally prohibited without the consent of both residents. Facilities tend to have policies against them for that reason unless the state requires them to be allowed.
