Who can provide training of staff in adult family homes and assisted living facilities related to personal care services?

Staff must meet the credentialing, training and competency requirements established in the state and federal laws and rules specific to the setting. Training and competency assessment for personal care services (non-nursing care) does not require the services of a Washington state licensed professional nurse. Training and education of staff employed in these facilities that address personnel, performance and other administrative activities do not require the utilization of a registered nurse.
