Home Health Aide classes

Health care aides help to provide basic care to individuals of all ages and abilities who require assistance in their daily activities.

These duties can include assisting with daily tasks such as getting ready for the day, eating, organizing, cleaning, and planning appointments. Health care aides also sometimes take vital signs. They can work in private homes or residential and medical facilities.

Joe Nessa's Home Health Care Aide course is designed to teach students about the fundamental tasks performed by a health care aide. The course covers medical terminology and the human body, safety, communication, emergency procedures, health care documentation, employment strategies and more.

The final module deals specifically with home care. This module is of particular interest since home health aides are among the fastest growing careers with a 38% job growth rate, which is much faster than the average.*

What You Will Learn?
  • Describe the role of the home health aide, outline the responsibilities involved in caring for home-bound patients, and differentiate the home health aide's role from other care providers.
  • Explain how to create a safe environment for the home health aide and the patient by identifying and describing OSHA regulations and other safe care requirements.
  • Describe typical duties and care responsibilities for patients of all ages and levels of health, with a focus on identifying issues and care concerns for specific populations.
  • Identify credible sources of dietary information and describe how to plan, purchase, store, and serve food to patients with different dietary restrictions and health concerns.
  • Identify and describe specific care regimens performed by the home health aide.
Requirements
  • Caring person.
  • 75 hours of training. At least 16 of which must be in person.

This is a good place for you to spend less money on your higher education especially if you're planning to transfer to a nurse program later. Their classes are also very flexible so you can work a lot while going to Joe Nessa Training at the same time.

Wonderful school with caring faculty and staff. It is a rigorous and challenging program, but the class sizes are small and the staff really help you to be successful. It is not easy but it is worth it!
