            care facility, adult care home, community mental health

            and training.  This would only be a first step in the
            process to amend the statute.  After the hearing the
            committee chair will decide whether to work the bill, the
            committee would decide whether to vote the bill out
            favorably to send on for consideration by the full Senate. 
            The Senate could then debate the bill and pass it on for
            consideration by the House.  The Governor would need to sign
            the bill or let it become law without his signature for any
            change to be made.
