The Resident Care Worker Program is designed to help students gain the knowledge and skills required to provide care in long term care facilities and home care settings. Students will gain an appreciation for personal support services, community services, and physical and mental health care services required by individuals in order to help them function as independently as possible.
Students will gain the ability to function within a client-centered multidisciplinary team of health professionals and paraprofessionals while providing quality health care services. Students will also come to appreciate the concept of normalisation when caring for individuals throughout their life span, while respecting the principles of independence, dignity, safety and security as they relate to clients and their families.
