Home health aide



Home health aide
Duties and responsibilities: Home care assistants serve an honorable and crucial role in our society by helping the disabled, elderly and chronically ill maintain high quality of life. These caretakers understand the dignity and happiness that come from proper hygiene, cleanliness and nutrition, as well as everyday activities and recreations that we often take for granted. Home care assistants can be divided into two broad branches: personal care aides and home health aides. Personal care aides tend to tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, cooking and light housekeeping. Additional responsibilities include organizing a client's schedule, grocery shopping, helping a client enjoy recreational opportunities, and providing valuable companionship for someone who may live alone and have no formal caregiver. Home health aides share all of these important aforementioned duties and, additionally, take care of basic health needs, including: Taking vital signs giving medications performing dressing changes as needed
Salary: in this scenario, a week of care costs $3,328.80.
Education: Most people who work as home care assistants have a high school diploma/GED, although no formal education is required in some states to begin a job. Other states require some formal classes as a prerequisite for working. These classes may be taken at community colleges, vocational/technical schools, or at private health training academies. Because the nature of the job differs from client to client, home care assistants receive the bulk of training at work. Under the supervision of another home care assistant, a certified home health aide or a nurse, the aspiring caregivers learn to perform specific tasks and acquire skills necessary for each client’s needs. Some employers also offer training classes in topics such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and may also require that students pass a competency test before beginning work.

well teamwork makes everything much much easier. when you work in a team you learn so many other new things you didn't knew about.also work is less than when you work by yourself because you can split it up with the team members.

Healthcare administrator

Healthcare administrator
Duties and responsibilities: Health care administrators have wide-ranging influence within the world of medicine. The leadership that these professionals provide sets the future course not only for the facilities they manage but also for the health care system as a whole. In addition to the internal leadership they provide, health care administrators are leaders within the greater community as well. They partner with other health care organizations, comply with government regulations, advocate and testify on behalf of health care policies, and maintain campuses that are significant to communities.
Salary: health care administrators were $84,270.


Education: A bachelor’s degree (four years) is the typical entry-level preparation needed for health care administration jobs. Some employers, however, will promote from within or hire other professionals with related experience (such as nurses) who are ideal for an administrative role because of their direct health care knowledge. For high-level executive positions, a graduate education (two to three years) is usually the starting point. This means attaining a MBA, or a different type of master’s degree, or a doctorate in health administration. Subspecialties are often available, especially in graduate programs. These include long-term care administration, health care services, or health information management. Prospective health care administrators should look for educational programs accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education. An accredited program has successfully gone through a process that ensures accountability and a commitment to quality improvement.
