Kentucky Vulnerable Adult Maltreatment Registry

The Cabinet for Health and Family Services administers the Kentucky Vulnerable Adult Maltreatment Registry enacted by the 2014 Kentucky legislative session. In accordance with KRS 209.032, information on file in the Victim of Adult Maltreatment 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, a health facility as defined by KRS 216B.015, or a health care provider enrolled in the Kentucky Medicaid program, to query as to whether a prospective or current employee contractor or volunteer has been subject to a validated substantiated finding. This Kentucky Vulnerable Adult Maltreatment 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 Criminal Penal Code.
