As people live longer, the need for qualified home healthcare workers grows. If you're thinking about a career in this burgeoning field, Utopia Home Care Inc. offers some free training to become a certified home health aide or a personal care aide as well as free caregiver skills training.
"There is a steadily growing need to teach people the skills required to take on the responsibilities of being a caregiver for members of their own family,' says Manuel Martinez, executive vice president of Utopia. "Our goal as a company is to allow patients to be cared for at home, rather than at a nursing home or other facility. Providing free caregiver training is an extension of that mission and will help to ensure that caregivers have the training needed to properly address the care needs of their loved ones."
