This bill establishes Mission Critical Long-Term Care Teams under the authority of the Commissioner of Health in New Jersey. These teams are tasked with identifying long-term care facilities that may require progressive oversight and direct intervention to prevent declines in health and safety or disruptions in healthcare services. Each team will consist of four individuals with expertise in various relevant fields, including long-term care administration, financial management, and nursing care. The Commissioner will also set specific indicators to evaluate the operational and financial soundness of these facilities, as well as their capacity to uphold residents' rights and meet licensing standards.

When a facility is identified as being at risk based on established indicators, the Commissioner may send a Mission Critical Long-Term Care Team to assess the situation and recommend corrective actions. Facilities are required to cooperate with the team and provide access to all necessary information and operations. The bill emphasizes the collaborative effort between the teams and the facilities to improve outcomes for residents, ensuring that health and safety standards are maintained.
