Requires municipalities to provide basic life support services; establishes basic life support services as essential.

This bill requires all New Jersey municipalities to provide basic life support (BLS) services - including CPR, wound care, and emergency stabilization - to meet community needs. It designates BLS as an "essential service," mandating that each municipality arrange for it through one of five methods: licensing private providers, contracting with public/private entities, creating mutual aid agreements with other towns, partnering with hospitals, or using existing fire/EMS departments. The law applies statewide and takes immediate effect, ensuring consistent access to critical pre-hospital care.
