Home Healthcare Aides Job Overview
Home healthcare aides provide care to elderly, recovering or disabled persons in their homes instead of healthcare facilities. They help patients recover from surgery or illness faster and give treatment to patients at their home when family members are unable to help. They also take care of the children whose parents are ill. They take instructions from doctors, nurses or therapists while providing care. They administer oral medications, check patient’s pulse rates, temperature and respiration rate. They also help discharged hospital patients who have relatively short-term needs.
Home Healthcare Aides Schools and Degrees
Home healthcare aides are not generally required to have a high school diploma. According to the Federal law, they need to pass a competency test covering a wide range of areas before they are trained. The National Association for Home Care and Hospice offers voluntary certification for home health aides. They are also trained on the job by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses or experienced aides. This training may last anywhere from several days to a few months. Aides also may attend lectures, workshops and in-service training.
Job Requirements
The National Association for Home Care offers Certified Home Care Aides certifications. The Certified Patient Care Technician certification is awarded by the National Healthcare Association.
Employers give classroom instruction for newly appointed home health care aides, but some of them focus on informal on-the-job instruction by a licensed nurse or an experienced aide. Home healthcare aides should be in good health, be tactful, patient, understanding, emotionally stable and dependable. They should also have a desire to help people. They might also need to undergo a physical examination test and a criminal background check.
Nature of Work
Home healthcare aides work under the directions of nursing or medical staff to provide healthcare services like administering oral medications, checking a patient’s pulse rate, temperature and respiration rate. They keep records of the services performed and record each patient’s condition and progress. They also report changes in a patient’s condition to the supervisor or case manager.
Some home healthcare aides may look after the same patient for months or even years. But they mostly work with a number of patients for few hours, days or weeks. They can also be required to attend multiple patients on the same day. They usually work alone and occasionally are visited by their supervisors. They are given detailed instructions about when to visit the patients and what services to perform.
