FAQS

Your loved one might qualify for LHA care if...

  • They have chronic diagnosis/medically complex needs.
  • Your child is 0-20 years of age and all requirements of care and nursing hours are met as defined by the Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD).

To obtain an LHA certification/license one must already be employed by a home health agency. An individual is unable to obtain an LHA license on their own, this is only given after completion of a board approved LHA program. The hiring and onboarding must be completed before attending LHA classes.

Hours are based off the medical need of the patient and determined by the DDD District Nurse following an evaluation/assessment of the patient. All authorized hours vary from patient to patient based on medical need for skilled nursing, as well as what care is considered to be appropriate within the scope of practice for an LHA as stated by the AZBN.

Medically complex diagnosis examples include, but are not limited to:

  • Mechanical Intervention
  • G-Tube
  • BiPap
  • Trach & Vent Care
