Evaluation of the Background Check Pilot Program Final Report

In 2004, Michigan was selected by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to participate in the Background Check Pilot Program. The Michigan Workforce Background Check Program and the Adult Abuse & Neglect Prevention (AANP) Training Program shared the overarching goal of reducing abuse and neglect of vulnerable older adults in Michigan. Through the CMS grant, Michigan had the opportunity to develop two specific, complementary strategies for abuse reduction: (1) a standardized, improved system of criminal background checks for all direct access staff, and (2) a direct access staff training program on the identification, reporting, and prevention of elder abuse. This "Evaluation of the Background Check Pilot Program Final Report" conducted by Abt Associates, Inc., is included below:
