Kentucky Nurse Aide Registry |
|
The Kentucky Nurse Aide Registry began in October 1990 after the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) became law. The Nurse Aide Registry has two main functions:
- To maintain a list of qualified nurse aides.
- To maintain a list of aides who have abused residents in facilities. A facility must verify if an individual has abused a resident in a long-term care facility before the aide can be hired by the facility.
The Office of the Inspector General regulates nurse aides who choose to work in long term care. In July 1999, the Kentucky Board of Nursing began maintaining the registry’s database records.
