This Act will further the purpose of Chapter 30A of Title 16 by clarifying the authority of the Division of Long Term Care Residents Protection to regulate nursing assistant training programs. The Division is currently approving the curriculum of training programs and conducting annual inspections pursuant to Chapter 30A of Title 16. This Act will improve the Division’s authority to regulate those programs by allowing it to impose sanctions for non-compliance with statutes and regulations. It adds the authority to publish, through an on-line listing, the pass rates of the training programs so that consumers can make better informed choices of schools. Finally, it will change the current practice of allowing persons who have been sanctioned for abuse, neglect mistreatment or financial exploitation to remain certified. Persons who have, as part of that sanctions, been “flagged” on the Delaware CNA Registry should have their certification suspended or revoked, depending on circumstances.

An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Division Of Long Term Care Residents Protection.
