Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or ConsumerFeedback@aplaceformom.com to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.
VI. No Waiver of Your Rights. APFM does not (and may not) require or even ask consumers seeking senior housing or care services in Washington State to sign waivers of liability for losses of personal property or injury or to sign waivers of any rights established under law.I agree that: A.I authorize A Place For Mom ("APFM") to collect certain personal and contact detail information, as well as relevant health care information about me or from me about the senior family member or relative I am assisting ("Senior Living Care Information"). B.APFM may provide information to me electronically. My electronic signature on agreements and documents has the same effect as if I signed them in ink. C.APFM may send all communications to me electronically via e-mail or by access to an APFM web site. D.If I want a paper copy, I can print a copy of the Disclosures or download the Disclosures for my records. E.This E-Sign Acknowledgement and Authorization applies to these Disclosures and all future Disclosures related to APFM's services, unless I revoke my authorization. You may revoke this authorization in writing at any time (except where we have already disclosed information before receiving your revocation.) This authorization will expire after one year. F.You consent to APFM's reaching out to you using a phone system than can auto-dial numbers (we miss rotary phones, too!), but this consent is not required to use our service.

Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
Why don't you have the original? After completing the program the original would have been given to you and your former job would have a copy. If your certification training was done through the state you live in, the Department of Public Health are the people who issue certification for CNA. They will give you a notorized official copy if you petition them for one. They will probably charge you f or the copy. Also, you should appeal to the Department of Labor in your state and tell them what your old job is pulling with not allowing you to have it. They will recover it for you as well.
If this is a State Certificate then the State will have the information. Check your State department of Licensing and Regulations. Or possibly the State Health Department. If you took the certification from a Community College or a private company they may also have the information that you need. If this is not a State Certified certificate it might be possible that the only way to obtain a copy will be through whoever administered the certification testing or your previous employer. I have no idea why they refuse to give you a copy, it does them no good. UNLESS they are the ones that paid for the certification. And maybe if you left employment shortly after getting certified.

Grandma1954 Jul 2021 You should have gotten a license from the state if you took the Certification Exam and the place that gave the exam submitted it to the state. Contact the State License Board for the state where you took the exam. Most times you will have to show proof of CEU's and probably pay to have the license renewed. This is probably done 1 time a year (some might be valid for 2 or more years depending on the certification. not sure on that) If you were employed your employer or former employer should also have a copy.

JoAnn29 Jul 2021 In my State the Nursing Board gives certification. Where did you take your course? Maybe that place has a copy.
MACinCT Jul 2021 You go back to where you obtained it. As time goes on, states will require licensing and you will need to hold on to certificates. Wait until you need to take x number of CEUs by a deadline. You miss it, you cannot work. Otherwise you start all over from the beginning.
