Ensuring Trauma-Informed and Culturally Responsive Testing


(1) Facilities and Associated Staffing Providers must adopt trauma-informed approaches to testing in accordance with Department guidance and professional standards of practice. Such approaches must account for the experiences and preferences of the person being tested to eliminate or mitigate triggers that may cause re-traumatization of the resident.
(2) Facilities and Associated Staffing Providers must ensure that all communications and testing-related support services for Residents, Facility Staff, and Associated Staff, such as mediation, decision-making support, and mental health services, are delivered in a linguistically and culturally appropriate manner and are in accordance with Department guidance and professional standards of practice. Medicaid enrolled members who require the use of certified health care interpreters shall be afforded that opportunity consistent with relevant OARs.
