Bill overview
This bill establishes a framework for the appointment of a receiver for providers of services to individuals with developmental disabilities in New Jersey. The Department of Human Services can petition a court to appoint a receiver if there are conditions at a site – such as unsafe practices or persistent violations of standards – that haven't been remedied. The receiver would have broad powers to manage the provider, ensure recipient safety, and oversee a transition to new providers if necessary. The bill aims to protect individuals with developmental disabilities by addressing issues of safety and quality of care at these service sites.
