You will work collaboratively with the client and the multi-disciplinary team by holistically supporting the client's physical, psychological, social, cognitive, cultural, and spiritual needs.<br><br>Theoretical knowledge includes coursework in foundational resident care worker concepts, the human body, mental health, and communications. Courses are supported by guided lab experiences and supervised clinical and practicum placements. You will apply your skills in real-world experiences and be exposed to multiple health care settings. Clinical and practicum placements may occur at various locations across Prince Edward Island and, as resident care work is practiced 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you may be scheduled to attend clinical or practicum shifts early mornings, days, evenings, nights, weekends, and/or holidays. All clinical and practicum costs are the responsibility of the student and there are no guarantees students will be placed at a preferred location or with a preferred shift schedule. Transportation to and from clinical sites is the responsibility of the student and public transit may not align with clinical shifts or location schedules.
