A 4309 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Revises responsibilities and duties of Nursing Home Administrator's Licensing Board.

This bill (A4309) updates the duties of New Jersey's Nursing Home Administrator's Licensing Board. It directly affects nursing home administrators seeking licenses, nursing homes implementing training programs, and the licensing board itself. Key changes include requiring the board to approve or disapprove intern training plans within 15 business days, mandating that program instructors have three years of licensed experience and supervise no more than four interns at once, and setting a new requirement for applicants to complete 1,750 hours (max 50 weekly) in an intern program before taking the licensing exam. The bill also clarifies processes for license portability between states for administrators without disciplinary records.
