CHFS to Withdraw Kentucky National Fingerprint Background Check Program

By Ginger - Site Admin on Tuesday, March 15, 2016 12:50 PM

The Cabinet for Health and Family Services (CHFS) has agreed to withdraw the Kentucky National Fingerprint Background Check Program. Former Governor Steve Beshear signed the emergency regulation in November 2015 to require fingerprint background checks on all new employees of long-term care facilities.

This regulation affected hospitals with home health agencies and hospice not located on the hospital's campus.
