Wisconsin Caregiver Law (1997 WISCONSIN ACT 27) requires all students have a Caregiver Background Check (nonrefundable $10.00 fee). Based upon results of the criminal background check, a student may be denied access to clinical agencies and thus would not be able to complete the program or be employed in healthcare. Also, clinical agencies will be notified of all students with pending charges and convictions and agencies can decline student admission to that agency. For the most current information on the Caregiver Law, visit www.dhfs.state.wi.us. |
