This bill amends the responsibilities and duties of the Nursing Home Administrators Licensing Board in New Jersey. Key revisions include a requirement for the board to issue licenses to applicants within 90 days of application submission, and to approve or disapprove nursing home administrator intern training program plans within specified timeframes. If a plan is not addressed within the established period, the nursing home may implement it. Additionally, nursing home administrators must notify the board of any changes to their address or name within six months of the next licensing renewal date, and applicants must complete 1,750 hours in an intern program and pass a licensing examination within two attempts.

Further provisions include immediate approval for applications from licensed nursing home administrators in good standing from other states, provided there are no disciplinary actions against them. The bill also grants presumptive eligibility for licensure to out-of-state applicants transferring to in-state nursing homes under the same ownership. These changes aim to streamline the licensing process and ensure that nursing home administrators meet the necessary standards for their roles.
