Description:

The Health Care Assistant Diploma Program exemplifies an approach to education that is dynamic, progressive and collaborative. Our curriculum involves many aspects of health care and incorporates flexibility to keep pace with changes in the Canadian health care system. In an era of fiscal restraint and demographic shifts, changes in the current state of health services are imminent; and within this continuum of services, there is movement toward further diversification of occupations. As a Health Care Assistant, you would be an integral part of this process. You would provide support for chronic conditions and facilitate community and residential living where there is less need for acute medical attention. To work in this dynamic environment with a varied team of medical and support staff, you must be versatile, competent and confident.

Prerequisites:
