Background Checks Required for Ohio Home Care Providers:
Non-agency Ohio Home Care waiver providers (personal care aides, home care attendants, nurses and other waiver service providers) are required to have a criminal background check conducted by the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation (BCI&I). If you have lived in Ohio for at least five years, you are required to have only an Ohio criminal background check. If you have lived in Ohio for fewer than five years, or if you were convicted of a crime in another state,  you must request both an Ohio background check and a FBI background check.

The results of your background check must be submitted DIRECTLY to ODJFS from BCI&I to the address below. Background checks submitted to us by the Webcheck vendor, local law enforcement agencies, the applicant, or any entity other than BCI&I can not be accepted. You must provide the address below to the Webcheck vendor when you have your background check completed:

ODJFS
Attn: BCI&I
PO Box 183017
Columbus, Ohio 43218-3017

To obtain a background check, you must go to a location that performs electronic WebCheck background checks for submission to BCI&I. A listing of WebCheck agencies can be found on the Ohio Attorney General's website at the following link: WebCheck Community Listing. You may also contact BCI&I by telephone at (877)224-0043.
