Bill overview
This bill changes the rules for professional guardians in New Jersey, requiring them to have more frequent contact with the individuals they are responsible for. Currently, guardians must visit wards at least every three months, but this bill mandates visits at least once every three weeks. It also allows family members to request a report from the guardian detailing the ward’s condition and the management of their estate, as ordered by the court. The goal is to improve oversight and ensure better care for incapacitated wards.
