About
Home Health Aides assist elderly people with cognitive and physical disabilities or illnesses from the comfort of their own home. Home Health Aides are allowed to be involved in many intimate aspects of patient care, under the supervision of a nurse, such as administering medication and checking vital signs. They may also educate families on how to best take care of certain aspects of the patient’s wellness. With the job outlook expected to jump in the next decade as people continue to age, demand for attentive and caring HHAs increases constantly.
