Bill seeks certification of aides in care homes
A Kansas Senate bill to certify adult care home aides faces a rocky path after hearings before the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee. Sen Arden Booth of Lawrence introduced the measure requiring certification by Jan 1 1976 for anyone employed as an adult care aide in licensed homes. Local officials and opponents cite costs, coverage, and potential staff shortages while supporters argue training improves care. The committee plans further clarification on training provisions and specifics.
