How District of Columbia Certified Medication Aide license verification works

A Certified Medication Aide in District of Columbia is licensed by the DC Nurse Aide Registry. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.
