This bill mandates the New Jersey Department of Health (DOH) to inspect reports of mold infestation in health care facilities. Specifically, it requires the DOH to establish procedures for inspecting any reports of mold infestation in buildings or homes under its jurisdiction within six months of the bill's effective date. Additionally, the DOH is tasked with creating guidelines for the prevention and removal of mold in these facilities within the same timeframe.

The bill also provides a definition of "mold," describing it as any form of multicellular fungi that thrives on plant or animal matter and in indoor environments, listing specific types of mold commonly found in water-damaged materials. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage, and the DOH is authorized to adopt necessary rules and regulations to implement its provisions.
