AI Summary

This bill establishes "Mission Critical Long-Term Care Teams" that will identify long-term care facilities at risk of operational or financial distress and provide them with oversight and direct intervention to prevent a decline in health and safety or disruption of necessary healthcare services. The Commissioner of Health will set specific indicators to evaluate a facility's operational and financial soundness, as well as its capacity to ensure residents' rights and deliver quality care.
