Continuing Care Assistants (CCAs) directly support people who need ongoing care due to aging, illness, or disability. CCAs tend to work in long-term care facilities, for home care agencies, or other community-based care organizations. Continuing Care Assistants provide essential support and assistance to residents in need. Their duties encompass a wide range of tasks, including aiding with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating, as well as assisting with mobility and exercises prescribed by healthcare professionals. They also offer emotional support and companionship, fostering a sense of community and well-being among residents. Overall, a CCA’s dedication and compassion contributes significantly to the quality of life and comfort of residents within the facility.
