Summary
New Jersey’s nursing home system is in crisis, with a damning audit revealing that 81% of resident complaints languished beyond legal deadlines—some waiting over seven months for inspections. These delays expose vulnerable patients to preventable harm like falls and infections. Compounding the issue, nearly $2 billion flowed between nursing homes and their affiliated companies between 2021 and 2023, raising alarms about transparency and misuse of funds. A new bill aims to force financial audits and disclose transactions to ensure taxpayer dollars serve residents—not just profits. It’s time for accountability before more lives are lost.
