AI Summary

This bill establishes an Incumbent Health Care Worker Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Certification Pilot Program within the Executive Office of Health and Human Services. The pilot program aims to provide paid training for incumbent health care workers who have limited access to state-approved CNA certification training, offering flexibility for individuals who may have difficulty attending traditional classes while fulfilling their current work responsibilities. The bill also creates an advisory committee to represent stakeholders and provide guidance on the program's implementation and effectiveness. The program will be evaluated, and the results and recommendations for subsequent state action will be reported to the relevant legislative committees within 6 months and 1 year of the pilot's implementation.
