Requires establishment of minimum staff-to-resident ratios in veterans' memorial homes.

This bill requires New Jersey's State veterans' memorial homes to maintain minimum direct care staff-to-resident ratios based on resident needs and facility size. The Division of Veterans’ Healthcare Services must establish these ratios, review them quarterly, and ensure each home meets the set standard. "Direct care staff" includes registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nurse aides working within their scope. The bill does not override existing health department or federal staffing rules for non-direct care staff and allows homes to exceed minimum staffing levels at any time.
