In accordance with KRS 209.032, information on file in the Adult Caregiver Misconduct Registry includes the listing of a person's name on the Registry based on a cabinet finding of substantiated adult abuse, neglect, or exploitation which has been “validated” meaning that the listing has been finalized after an appeal, or that no appeal was requested within the time permitted. It is not a criminal finding. The information in the registry is available to entities that provide care services to vulnerable adults to query as to whether a prospective or current employee contractor or volunteer has been subject to a validated substantiated finding. This Adult Caregiver Misconduct Registry is also available for a self-query to determine whether a validated substantiated finding of adult abuse, neglect, or exploitation has been entered against him or her. Fraudulent use of this system for any other reason is restricted and controlled by the Criminal Penal Code.
