As for retirement and nursing homes, those are also privately owned, not public. So I'm not really sure that this is going to affect much. I really don't like the idea of spending time and effort on a bill that will impact a very few businesses.
The bill says private hospitals are prohibited from posting 30.06 signs unless they have security guards at each entrance.

Public hospitals are prohibited from posting 30.06 at all.

gotcha, too many negatives. thank you.

in that case, the hospitals will just add $50 a day to everyone's bills as a "security fee" add a couple more security guards and rake in extra $
the retirement homes are already making a fortune, and they'll do the same thing as the hospitals.

and the security lobby will be thrilled!
