SWAEC- School Paraprofessional Personal Care Training



Personal care training will provide paraprofessionals in school districts having special education students needing assistance with their physical dependency needs the required practical training piece (10 hours) of the required 40 hour training. The 40 hours include CPR/first aid (6 hours), ADE modules from the Special Education supervisor (24 hours), and this 10 hour training, equaling the 40 hours that are required. Once the instructor has proof of the CPR/first aid and the ADE modules, in addition to this training, participants will receive a Personal Care Certificate and be certified for their district to bill Medicaid for the personal care services provided to approved students. The district must employ an RN, and the RN will write the personal care assessment/prior authorization on the students being assisted. The services that are billable include bathing, bladder and bowel requirements, eating, dressing, incidental housekeeping, hygiene, shopping, mobility and ambulation. This training covers everything the school district needs to know in order to bill for personal care. I ask that the RN who will be writing the care plans and supervising be in attendance with their paraprofessional, as I will cover all paperwork, so that everyone is on the same page.
