Supportive Care Assistant Program
7 week program
February 8 – March 26, 2021
NLC’s Supportive Care Assistant program provides graduates with essential skills needed to support community members with personal care and help them access to health services.
This training will enable you to work as a front line worker providing assistance to your Elders and vulnerable persons within your communities who require non-medical support with their medical and mental health needs in their own homes or other settings.
You will be working directly with your bands health and/or other appropriate departments or with a local Senior Health Care agency.
Seats are limited to 2 participants per community and 4 participants from NEBC Urban Centers.
Having a driver’s license is an extreme asset and will be highly preferred for those applying for the Urban positions.
Participants need to be able to pass a drug screen and criminal background check.
Program will be facilitated online for five of the weeks with two weeks face to face.
