Got a Question?

Yes. HHAs and CNAs require state certification and must meet registry and competency requirements before working independently.

Yes. Kansas allows a blended learning approach. Online training is accepted for the lecture and theory portions and can also be used for continuing education. However, hands-on skill practice and competency demonstration must be completed in person. This split ensures that caregivers get practical, supervised experience before working independently.

Training includes infection control, personal care, safety procedures, and professional communication.

Learn2Care helps Kansas agencies organize caregiver training by role, track course completion, and maintain documentation for compliance reviews.

Agencies can use Learn2Care to support training roles such as HHAs, HCBS Workers, and Supportive Care Workers, including topics like communication, infection control, safety, documentation, personal care, and client rights.

It helps agencies keep training records clear, consistent, and easier to manage across caregiver teams.

Caregiver training requirements in Kansas vary by role and follow a structured, role-based approach:

  • Home Health Aides (HHAs) must complete a state-approved pathway, which includes being a certified nurse aide (CNA) plus an additional 20-hour HHA course, along with 12 hours of annual training.
  • HCBS Workers and Supportive Care Workers must demonstrate competency before providing care and are re-evaluated annually across key areas such as communication, infection control, safety, documentation, and personal care skills.
  • Ongoing training is required for supportive care workers and managers, based on the services provided and equipment used.
