Standards for service delivery and allowable tasks/activities for AFFC providers, respite care providers and substitute caregivers are contained in the “Qualified Service Provider Handbook/Adult Family Foster Care Provider Handbook." Copies of the handbook are available at Aging Services Division or on the DHS publications website. Potential providers may obtain a copy from the local County Social Service Agency.
As identified in the Handbook, standards 5-25 require verification of demonstrated competence by a physician, registered nurse, occupational therapist, physical therapist, or other professional degree of expertise in the specialized area(s) of in-home care.
