Overview

Personal care aides (PCAs), often known as caregivers, play a crucial role in supporting clients who require assistance with daily activities due to illness, injury, or age-related limitations. These professionals are dedicated to promoting their client's physical well-being and providing emotional support and companionship during challenging times.
