Have you worked as a HCA?

Im always changing my plans. I know, I am the worst for it.

At first my heart was set taking the BScN programe. Then I figured that I would upgrade some courses and then take the PN course.

I have taken one course (Biology 30) I just now need to upgrade my English and Math.

However, I am now thinking about taking a 10 week HCA course. Kinda to just get my foot in the door, gain a little experience and make a little cash. A little extra income could sure help take the sting off education costs.

How is it working as a HCA? What exactly do you do? I am thinking you are more of an assistant?

I have some friends working as HCA's in the home care setting. They take care of personal hygiene. They give the meds, change the catheter bag, help with meals, chit-chat...

Is this more or less the same as in a hospital setting?

Thanks for your insight.
