Feeding Assistant Training Program Approval Process
Back to Wisconsin Feeding
Assistant Program - Introduction
Entities wishing to operate a feeding assistant training program must
submit a completed Wisconsin
Feeding Assistant Training Program Application form, DDE-2588 (PDF,
112 KB) along with:
- their proposed selected resident population curriculum
- their proposed feeding assistant instructor information
to the Office of
Caregiver Quality, Division of Quality Assurance (DQA).
Priority will be given to new program applications, as DQA has not
accepted requests to train single task workers since October 2000.
All facilities currently approved to train single task workers will
also be required to submit the DDE-2588
form (PDF, 112 KB), along with
- their proposed training curriculum
- selected resident population curriculum
- feeding assistant
instructor information
to the Office of Caregiver Quality no later than Wednesday,
June 30, 2004. Also see Current Single Task Worker Grandparenting
Policy.
The Office of Caregiver Quality (OCQ) will review the application and
supporting materials and will determine whether to approve or deny the
feeding assistant training program.
OCQ will issue a written notice
regarding DQA’s decision, with a copy to the appropriate Regional Field
Operations Director (RFOD), within 45 calendar days of receiving a
complete application.
The Department has obtained a supply of the pre-approved feeding
assistant training program curricula. Upon program approval, the feeding
assistant training program will be issued, at no cost:
- one copy
(instructor and student, if applicable) of their selected standardized
training curriculum
- a Wisconsin Caregiver Program video cassette
- standardized competency evaluation materials
- feeding assistant training
program and grandparented certificate templates
- and a feeding assistant
roster template.
