Home Health Aide

This training covers material for both Personal Care Aide (PCA) and Home Health Aide (HHA). It provides students with the foundation of working in a home setting and providing care ranging from personal care for the elderly, disabled and infants to taking vital signs.

There is growing demand and high need for in home care professionals in our region. An HHA has a scope of care/services that is wider and more advanced than a PCA.

The course is taught in English and has a minimum of 80 hours of classroom and lab experience followed by 8 hours of clinical rotation at a local Assisted Living facility. Students who successfully complete course requirements receive HHA certification and are entered into the New York State Department of Health Home Care Registry.
