Imposes minimum staffing requirements and certain reporting requirements on certain long-term care facilities.
This bill requires New Jersey long-term care facilities providing specialized care for Alzheimer's patients to maintain at least one staff member trained in memory care at all times. It mandates that facilities keep daily staffing records (including registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nurse aides) and provide this information to the public upon request. Additionally, facilities must share a written list of Alzheimer's-specific activities and safety policies with potential residents and submit annual reports on antipsychotic medication use to the state health department. These requirements directly affect facilities serving Alzheimer's patients across New Jersey.
