Establishes "Long-Term Care Facility Infectious Disease Preparedness and Home Health Care Study Commission."

This bill establishes the "Long-Term Care Facility Infectious Disease Preparedness and Home Health Care Study Commission" in New Jersey. The commission, composed of 15 members including state officials and industry experts, will analyze how long-term care facilities (like nursing homes and assisted living centers) respond to infectious disease outbreaks and examine ways to encourage home health care services. It must submit a report within 12 months detailing findings on facility preparedness, staffing needs during outbreaks, home health aide retention, and methods to promote home care. The bill does not create new laws but directs a study to inform future policy.
