Rhode Island DSP Training Audit Checklist
Every training Rhode Island requires for direct support professionals, with the deadline and the official rule, so you can check each staff file before your next review. Medication passes without a nurse competency checklist, expired CPR, and missing HCBS training certificates before the January 31, 2027 attestation are the items reviewers flag.
