S 1269 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes tuition reimbursement program for certain advanced practice nurses who provide home health care services.

This bill creates a tuition reimbursement program for New Jersey residents who are advanced practice nurses certified by the state and provide home health care services in patients' homes. To qualify, nurses must have specialized home health training, apply within one year of certification, and agree to work full-time in home health care for 1-4 years. The program reimburses 25% of a participant's lowest-year tuition cost per year of service, up to 100% total (capped at one year's tuition). Participants must maintain NJ residency, nursing certification, and meet performance standards while providing care without discrimination based on patients' ability to pay.
