Overview
This bill, the "New Jersey Dialysis Patient Support Person Accommodation Act," requires licensed dialysis centers in New Jersey to allow patients receiving treatment to be accompanied by a designated support person. The support person can assist with communication, mobility, and decision-making. Dialysis centers can implement reasonable health and safety measures, but must maintain written policies regarding support person access and provide them to patients and the public, while staff receive training on these requirements.
