NYSDOH issues guidance for Advanced Home Health Aide training 

Chapter 471 of the Laws of 2016 amends the Nurse Practice Act to establish the Advanced Home Health Aide (AHHA) role and allow AHHAs to perform advanced tasks with appropriate training upon assignment by and under the supervision of registered nurses. The practice of AHHAs will enable more people to live in home and community-based settings and provide support to family caregivers and their loved ones.

The New York State Department of Health has recently issued several guidance documents to commence development of Advanced Home Health Aide (AHHA) training. The following documents are available at https://www.health.ny.gov/facilities/home_care/advanced_home_health_aides/ and on the Health Commerce System:

- DAL – DHCBS Requirements to Operate an AHHA Program – January 4, 2019

- AHHA Training Program Guide - December 2018

- AHHA General Information and Application for Initial Approval – December 2018

- Handbook for Students and Certified AHHAs, December 2018
