A bill filed Nov 6, 2026 by Puerto Rico Representative Jorge Navarro Suárez would allow authorized surveillance cameras inside the rooms of residents at senior care facilities. [^1]

For families who leave an elderly relative in someone else's care, that is a question that sits close to home. The measure, as filed, speaks to what happens behind the door of a resident's own room.

The record so far names the sponsor and the filing date. What remains to be seen is how the bill defines who authorizes a camera and who may watch what it records.
