This bill mandates the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development, in collaboration with the Department of Health and healthcare stakeholders, to create a program aimed at identifying and recruiting unemployed individuals for positions in healthcare facilities. The identification process will assess the feasibility of training individuals for specific roles, consider the proximity of job opportunities to the individual's residence along with their transportation options, and identify any barriers that may prevent immediate employment, even on a probationary basis while training is completed.

Additionally, the bill allocates $250,000 from the general fund to support training programs and resources for eligible individuals, ensuring that these efforts are coordinated with existing training initiatives managed by the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
