Many home health care aides are deeply dedicated to their work and the clients they serve. For some, improving their English skills can open the door to better communication, stronger relationships, and opportunities for career growth.
Limited English proficiency can:
- Reduce the number of clients an aide can effectively work with
- Lead to misunderstandings with clients, their families, or supervisors
- Make it more challenging to share important updates or concerns
By investing in your aides’ English language development, you're helping them succeed while strengthening your agency in the process.
