NJ Nursing Homes

Nursing Home Resolution Kit.

(For Assistance in New Jersey Estate Planning)

In New Jersey, nursing homes are governed by the Nursing Home Reform Act of l987 as adopted by the state legislature. In our practice, we have found a myriad of Nursing Home problems that appear to run afoul of the law.

If one has a grievance or dispute with a Nursing Home, it is imperative that:
	a) the person have the legal power to speak, for their loved one, on that exact point of contention.
	b) the person know exactly where the Nursing Home Reform Act stands on that unresolved issue.
	c) the person know the proper protocol in approaching the Nursing Home.
In our Nursing Home Dispute Resolution Kit, we will:
	a) prepare the pertinent documents which will allow you to fully advocate on behalf of your loved one.
	b) give you a l00-item report card for you to evaluate the level of care which is being given.
	c) arm you with the applicable sections of the law.
	d) provide you with a strategy to have your grievances addressed by the skilled nursing facility.
	e) guide you each step of the way and interface, with the facility, in a final attempt to resolve the matter before the state is summoned.
	f) guide you in as your file the pertinent appeals to the appropriate state agencies.
