Provider orientation in Siskiyou County
Not stated online
The county does not say online whether orientation is in person or online. Its Public Authority page posts a "Provider Enrollment & Orientation (Packet A)" set of forms.
How to start: The county's IHSS page says you or your provider can contact your social worker or the Public Authority about enrollment requirements, and it names a staff contact for people interested in becoming a provider.
Call the Siskiyou County main IHSS line and ask how new providers complete orientation.
