Skip to main content Health care workers who aren t fingerprinted can keep jobs, but are barred from providing direct care Jenna Carlesso, CTMirror.org FacebookTwitterEmail Employees in nursing homes, home health care, residential care homes, assisted living centers and other health care settings who were not fingerprinted as part of a state-required background check will be able to keep their jobs, but will be barred from providing direct care to patients until the mandate is fulfilled, the state Department of Public Health said Tuesday. Gov. Ned Lamont suspended the order that workers in those sectors be fingerprinted when the pandemic hit Connecticut. Employees hired from March 23, 2020, to May 19, 2021, were able to start work without completing that leg of the background check. The requirement was waived to avoid further spread of COVID-19, officials have said.
