Requires State Long-Term Care Ombudsman to include memory care training in annual long-term care training program.
This bill requires New Jersey's State Long-Term Care Ombudsman to add specific memory care training to their annual long-term care training program within one year. The training must cover the needs and rights of residents with Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, including methods to address their unique challenges. If the ombudsman's program does not include this training by the deadline, they must report to the legislature explaining the delay and steps to implement it. The bill directly affects the ombudsman's program, long-term care facility staff, and residents with memory-related conditions.
