12.

Recommendation as submitted by Supervisors Mitchell and Solis: Declare that,

in the face of Federal immigration enforcement against County residents, the

County will provide for the defense of County employees who are charged with

Counsel, to take the following actions:

of a patient’s presence. Hospital policies that defer authority to law

enforcement agencies to determine issues of patient access and legal

representation should only apply to peace officers as defined under

California Penal Code Section 830 et seq. unless advised by the law

enforcement agency that an individual is under criminal detention or

there is a documented and credible risk of harm to the patient or other

persons.

Develop and implement policies allowing patients detained by immigration

authorities to consent to the release of information to family members,

assigned counsel and, if appropriate, governmental representatives,

including Members of Congress.

Develop and implement policies establishing procedures for County

personnel to verify and document the identity of any unknown or

apparent law enforcement officials accompanying detained patients.

Instruct County personnel to insist Federal immigration enforcement

agents leave the room when appropriate to either preserve Federal and

State law patient confidentiality and/or allow patients to rest, and to

document any refusals by such agents to comply.

Instruct all relevant Department personnel regarding Medicaid and

Medicare discharge planning requirements and their applicability to

patients detained by immigration enforcement.

Instruct County personnel to document any Federal immigration

enforcement actions that may jeopardize the health or safety of the

Department of Health Services’ patients, and to promptly notify County

Counsel so that Counsel may consider pursuing any timely and

appropriate injunctive relief.

Report back to the Board in writing within 60 days on the implementation

of the above directives and ensure the report back is aligned with, and

does not delay, the report to the Board required by Board Order No.

54-B of September 30, 2025, entitled, “Protecting Immigrants’ Rights to

Health Care Access.”

Request the Sheriff, in consultation with County Counsel, to report back

to the Board in writing in 90 days with the formal protocol for the

Department's engagement and response when Federal law enforcement

is present at any County-operated facilities or at facilities within the

County with shared County operations. The report should include: clear

procedures for responding to the presence of Federal law enforcement;

steps to verify legal authority and the purpose of the Federal action; a

clear communication matrix to timely notify the Board and the affected

County Department within 24 hours of the alleged operations; and a

comprehensive log of all Federal law enforcement contacts or operations

occurring in County facilities, and facilities within the County with shared

County operations, involving Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department

A discussion of the Supervised Independent Living Placement (SILP)

program, and plans for improving alignment of SILP placements with

youth readiness and support needs to ensure that youth appropriate for

this placement type are in SILPs, as well as providing enhanced case

management support to youth placed in SILPs. This plan should include
