2024 Fall Regular Semester
HCA 120/Lecture/A - Health Care Aide Role & Responsibily | Credits 3.00
The student will focus on the role and responsibilities of a Health Care Aide (HCA) working in a variety of employment settings. The focus of this course is to share information that will result in safe, ethical, and respectful care based on the needs of the client. Care that meets these standards is known as person-centred care. To meet the goal of person-centred care, the HCA must be familiar with the provincial legislation that guides safe, ethical, and personalized care. In addition, knowledge of how to work as part of the health-care team is essential, as is the ability to follow the HCA’s employer policy and procedures and the HCA’s job description. The HCA is responsible for identifying, managing, and preventing potential environmental hazards in facilities and community-based settings and focusing on the client’s safety as well as your own safety in different settings. Note: Students must achieve a grade of C+ in order to progress in the program.
