AI HubTraining Requirements for Virginia Caregivers

The training ensures caregivers have the foundational knowledge to deliver quality care and support clients safely.
Who we empower every day
By Role
- Agency Owners – Establish and maintain training programs so your staff meet state requirements and your agency retains compliance.
By Persona
- Supervisors – Schedule, track and verify caregivers’ training completion, ensure credentials are up-to-date before shifts.
- Care Managers – Confirm assigned caregivers have the required training for clients’ needs and tasks.
- Billers/Payroll – Maintain records of training completions for audit and regulatory review.
- Schedulers – Ensure only trained caregivers are assigned to clients, integrate training status into shift assignment logic.
- Caregivers – Complete the training, understand the standard of care, document it and apply it daily.
- On-Call/Backup Coordinators – Verify substitute staff have verified training; train new staff quickly.
Training is not a one-time checkbox: the state expects agencies to maintain documentation of caregiver competence. When your scheduling, staffing and credential-tracking are built into your software platform, you reduce risks of non-compliance and protect service-quality.
