Revises requirements concerning disqualification from registration as, and duties of, a professional guardian.

This bill revises New Jersey's requirements for professional guardians who care for incapacitated adults. It expands the list of disqualifying acts that could prevent someone from becoming a professional guardian or lead to suspension/revocation of their registration, including self-dealing where guardians act in their own interest rather than the ward's. The bill establishes a civil penalty of $5,000-$10,000 for those whose registration is suspended or revoked. Additionally, it adds an explicit duty for guardians to avoid abuse, neglect, or exploitation and to act in the ward's best interests at all times. This affects professional guardians and the incapacitated adults they serve in New Jersey.
