Course Description and Details
A Certified Homemaker-Home Health Aide (CHHA) is a professional employed by a home care services agency, working under the supervision of a registered nurse. The CHHA follows a nursing regimen delegated by the nurse or performs tasks as assigned by the nurse.
In addition to carrying out nursing-related duties, a CHHA may assist with home-making activities as requested by the patient, their family, or the overseeing registered nurse.
When recovering from an illness and in need of home assistance, you can rely on a certified homemaker-home health aide to provide support.
It’s important to remember that the agencies employing these aides are regulated by the Division of Consumer Affairs, while the aides themselves are governed by the New Jersey Board of Nursing.
