HIPAA Training Requirement for APD Group-Home Staff

Applies to
All staff
How often
Annual

HIPAA Basics is an annual privacy-and-security training for all staff who handle protected information.

HIPAA training keeps staff current on how protected information must be handled. It renews annually.

Because it's a yearly item rather than a one-time certificate, it slips quietly — everyone did it 'last year,' but nobody's watching the exact date it lapses.
