What the law actually requires where you are — summarized from our jurisdiction guides. Open any topic for the full details.

Workplace first aid

New Jersey follows federal OSHA (29 CFR 1910.151(b)) for private employers and the equivalent PEOSH standard for public employees: no fixed first-aider-to-worker ratio, but when no infirmary or hospital is in near proximity, employers must ensure adequately trained first-aiders are on staff. OSHA guidance expects at least one trained responder per shift, reachable within 3-4 minutes at high-hazard sites.

Healthcare professional recognition

The New Jersey Board of Nursing (Division of Consumer Affairs) requires registered nurses to complete 30 contact hours of continuing education every two-year renewal cycle, including 1 hour on opioids and 2 hours on end-of-life care. BLS is generally an employer/hospital requirement rather than a licence condition, and provider-accredited advanced courses such as ACLS or PALS can count toward CE.

Residential care settings

In New Jersey, assisted-living residences, personal-care homes and home-care agencies expect care staff to hold CPR and first-aid training; the Board of Nursing's mandated 76-hour Certified Homemaker-Home Health Aide (CHHA) curriculum includes CPR. A recognized, up-to-date certificate meets this requirement, in addition to occupational training, and must be renewed periodically.

Foster families

In New Jersey, the Department of Children and Families licenses resource families (foster parents), and its emergency-preparedness standards require caregivers to be ready for a medical emergency; a current CPR and first-aid certificate covering adult, child and infant is commonly required before a placement. It is one requirement in addition to the home study, background checks and parenting-suitability assessment.
