PCA Personal Care Assistant

Duties

Personal care aides generally are responsible for light cleaning, cooking, running errands, and doing laundry, as well as assisting clients with bathing, showering, grooming, and other personal hygiene tasks. They also engage clients in activities like reading, talking, and playing games. Additionally, personal care aides might consult with a client's family members to address their concerns regarding the client's health, nutrition, and overall well-being.

Requirements

Personal care aides typically don't need a high school diploma and a certificate and might need to meet some requirements set by their state or employer. For example, an aide might need to learn basic emergency and safety techniques, or he or she might be asked to cook with specific dietary restrictions in mind. As a general rule, personal care aides should be in good physical condition, have access to a reliable mode of transportation and, perhaps most of all, enjoy helping those in need
