. The department shall do both of the following in the
administration of the home care aide registry:
(a) Establish and maintain on the department's Internet Web site
the registry of registered home care aides and home care aide
applicants.
(1) To expedite the ability of a consumer to search and locate a
registered home care aide or home care aide applicant, the Internet

this chapter, that shall not be publicly available on the home care
aide registry.
(b) Update the home care registry upon receiving notification from
