What Connecticut requires of a caregiver

Connecticut issues no caregiver credential of its own, by its own rules.

  • A registered homemaker-companion agency must have a prospective employee who may provide companion or homemaker services submit to a comprehensive background check before hire, and submits employee information for the state home care provider registry; the statute sets no training hours.
