To comply with the Elder and Dependent Adult Protection law, any individual working in Napa County and providing in-home care for compensation, must register as a caregiver through the California Department of Social Services Home Care Aide Registry. IHSS care providers who only work for IHSS recipients or individuals who hold a current state license (e.g. registered nurses, certified nursing assistants, licensed vocational nurses) are not required to register.

Works in conjunction with IHSS to establish and maintain a “registry” of screened care providers that can be accessed by IHSS recipients. Upon request, the Public Authority will send a recipient a list of care providers. The Public Authority also helps recipients who need assistance interviewing and selecting a qualified and compatible home care provider. The Public Authority provides training opportunities for providers on CPR/First Aid, caregiving skills, best practices, communication, and other relevant topics.

Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) were established under the Older Americans Act (OAA) in 1973 to respond to the needs of Americans 60 and over in every local community. By providing a range of options that allow older adults to choose the home and community-based services and living arrangements that suit them best, AAAs make it possible for older adults to “age in place” in their homes and communities.
