About the training
Is this training free?

What does South Carolina require?
Under S.C. Reg. 60-122 §404, caregivers at a licensed In-Home Care Provider complete training in eight topics before client contact and at least every year: basic first aid; care for the client's condition, such as dementia; confidentiality; documentation and recordkeeping; ethics and interpersonal relationships; lifting and transfers; infection control; and preventing abuse, neglect, and exploitation. A&M also trains you on anything specific to each client's care plan.
What else do I need before I start?
South Carolina also requires a SLED criminal record check, a drug screen, Sex Offender Registry and Nurse Aide Registry checks, and a health self-assessment. Caregivers serving SC Medicaid (Community Choices) clients also complete an in-person skills check with an A&M nurse. Your A&M onboarding coordinator will walk you through each one.
Do I have to work for A&M to take it?
