Personal Care Aide (PCA)

A Personal Care Aide (PCA) provides assistance to individuals who need help with daily activities due to age, illness, or disability. Their duties may include helping clients with bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, and light housekeeping. PCAs play a crucial role in supporting clients to maintain their independence and improve their quality of life. They often work in patients' homes, assisted living facilities, or healthcare settings. PCAs must be compassionate, patient, and skilled in understanding the needs of those they assist, fostering a respectful and trusting relationship.
