Have you ever thought about helping seniors? Reports from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predict an increase in the personal and home care aides job category – forecasting it to be the second fastest-growing job group in the nation over the next decade. But the rapid growth in this job group may not be fast enough. Home Instead Senior Care’s recent research indicates that demand for these jobs will outpace supply in a big way. To keep pace with this projected demand, Home Instead will have to double its care force in just three years, according to our research.
So, do you have what it takes to be a Home Instead Senior Care CAREGiver?
