Description of Business:
Presbyterian Homes & Services is composed of 37 senior living communities which serve over 11,000 older adults. A growing need for experienced Home Health Aids arises with the increasing population of these senior living communities. The Home Health Aid plays a vital role in the many programs and services which are available at each of the Presbyterian Homes. They accompany many of their residents to events and functions and participate in group events within the community. Home Health Aids receive regular training in new techniques and methods for providing excellent care to residents and meeting their special needs. Opportunities for growth exist with the organization through their ongoing support of staff.
Pros:
1. Presbyterian Homes & Services was founded in 1943 and has been growing since that time. Employment with this organization is stable.
2. Continual staff training to assure patient care is available as well as training to improve or attain skills which will be useful in achieving promotional goals.
3. Opportunities for growth abound at this organization as well as to transfer to other communities should you desire to do so.
Cons:
1. Home Health Aids must be able to work in an environment that will be stressful at times and require interaction with physicians, family members, and the community.
2. Staff must have a very good, working knowledge of state and federal regulations and mandates regarding elder care.
3. Staff must be willing to play a key role in the ongoing care and quality of life that both the resident and their family expect.
