AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoStudent-loan fight hits healthcare training: New Jersey’s AG joins a fast-growing coalition suing the U.S. Department of Education to block a new rule that narrows which “professional degree” programs qualify for federal student loan limits—an effort aimed at protecting access for future nurses and other health workers. Behavioral health infrastructure still stalled: Care Plus NJ brought state legislators to tour its Bergen County Crisis Receiving and Stabilization Center, but advocates say funding gaps could keep multiple 988 crisis centers from ever opening. Care settings keep posting mixed CMS results: CMS data highlights Christian Health Care Center as Bergen County’s No. 3 nursing home by capacity (with a 4/5 rating), while several other facilities across counties show lower ratings and fines/penalties. Storm disruptions: Severe storms knocked out SEPTA service on key lines and caused delays during the commute. Community and affordability moves: Stop & Shop announced lower everyday prices across NJ, and the PSEG Foundation opened grant applications for its Neighborhood Partners Program.
