AN ACT
Amending Title 18 (Crimes and Offenses) of the Pennsylvania
Consolidated Statutes, in assault, further providing for the
offense of neglect of care-dependent person and providing for
the offense of abuse of care-dependent person.
The General Assembly finds and declares that it is the
legislative intent in enacting this act that a distinction
should be recognized between intentional acts and negligent
acts, particularly when this act is enforced against family
members of a care-dependent person who are not trained to
provide care.
The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
hereby enacts as follows:
Section 1. Section 2713(a) and (b) and the definition of
"caretaker" in subsection (f) of Title 18 of the Pennsylvania
Consolidated Statutes are amended, THE SECTION IS AMENDED BY
ADDING A SUBSECTION and subsection (f) is amended by adding
