§ 30-4f-1

30:4F-1. Legislative findings and declarations The Legislature finds and declares that there is a need to assist families in their care of frail or severely disabled persons and without the availability of occasional relief from the provision of constant care for these persons, placement in a long-term care facility may be necessary; that occasional relief can be provided through a program of respite care; and that in order to initiate and encourage expansion of respite care services and evaluate the need for and the most efficient and effective means of providing the service, it is necessary to establish a respite care demonstration program within the Department of Human Services. L.1983, c. 284, s. 1; per s.7, expired June 30, 1986.
