Establishes "Mission Critical Long-Term Care Teams"; provides for identification of and intervention at long-term care facilities at risk of operational and financial distress.

This bill creates "Mission Critical Long-Term Care Teams" within New Jersey's Department of Health to address facilities facing financial trouble or safety risks. The teams, composed of four experts in areas like nursing and finance, will evaluate facilities identified through specific health and financial indicators (e.g., declining resident care or budget shortfalls) and advise on corrective actions. Long-term care facilities receiving a team must cooperate fully, granting access to all operations and financial data. The law aims to prevent facility failures that could disrupt care or endanger residents, focusing on early intervention rather than punitive measures.
