AI HubThe Significance of the Idaho Skills Matrix
This video discusses Idaho’s Skills Matrix—a framework created by the Idaho Department of Health & Welfare to assess required caregiver skills, training, and competencies. Caregivers working for Medicaid-funded services must complete training aligned with the Skills Matrix and the state’s provider training requirements.
CareSmartz360 helps agencies track caregiver compliance with the matrix, manage continuing education, schedule training, and maintain records as required under the provider training matrix.
