Streamlining the home care worker background check process.

This bill changes the rules for background checks for home care workers in Washington. It allows some individuals with certain past convictions, like theft or assault, to still work as home care providers if enough time has passed since their conviction. The bill also clarifies when employers need to conduct new background checks and allows workers to provide care for a short period while their background check is being processed.
