     6  caregiver  shall  be  consulted  as soon as possible, but not later than
     7  twenty-four hours prior to discharge, regarding his or her  capabilities
     8  and  limitations  in  administering  medications  and  providing  proper
     9  central venous line care. In the event that the identified caregiver  is
    10  unwilling  or  unable  to confidently provide proper care of the central
    11  venous line, appropriate services, which may include but not be  limited
    12  to home health care services, shall be ordered.
    13    §  2.  This  act shall take effect immediately. Effective immediately,
