52:27D-331 Findings, declarations.
2. The Legislature finds and declares that: continuing care retirement communities are becoming an important and increasingly preferred alternative for the long-term residential, social and health care needs of New Jersey's senior citizens; because senior citizens often expend a significant portion of their savings in order to purchase care in the retirement community and thereby expect to receive care at the retirement community for the rest of their lives, tragic consequences can result to senior citizens when a continuing care provider becomes insolvent or unable to provide responsible care; and there is a need for full disclosure concerning the terms of agreements made between prospective residents and the continuing care providers and the operations of the providers; therefore, it is the policy of this State that providers of continuing care shall register with and be monitored by the State Department of Community Affairs.
