Burke Rehabilitation Center. A homemaker-home health aide program for disadvantaged adults. 1990

S Watkins

In response to an area shortage of homemaker-home health aides, the Burke Rehabilitation Center has instituted a training program for financially disadvantaged persons, teaching them work in a home setting, caring for the frail elderly, children, and/or mentally impaired individuals. Both clients and homemaker-home health aides have benefited from this innovative program.
