Home Instead Senior Care in Donegal is offering opportunities for people to gain professional qualifications in Home Help skills.
The senior care provider is resuming training in Letterkenny this September, October and November.
The course will deliver QQI Accredited modules in Care Skills and Care of the Elderly along with Patient Moving and Handling.
Being a caregiver is a job that changes lives and can be a hugely fulfilling experience.
If you regularly provide assistance or emotional support for an elderly person, you could be considered a caregiver. The training programme is aimed to help carers expand their existing skills into a rewarding, fulfilling profession that can significantly enhance the quality of life for a senior. It’s a career that offers flexibility, fits in with childcare, studying part time or maybe for those that have recently retired and have available free time and a desire to care for others.
