A Personal Care Assistant (PCA) is a professional who helps individuals with daily activities, especially those who are elderly, disabled, or recovering from illness. PCAs provide support with tasks like bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and medication reminders. Their goal is to enhance the quality of life for their clients while promoting independence and dignity. In addition to physical assistance, PCAs often offer companionship and emotional support. They may engage clients in conversation, help them with hobbies, or accompany them to appointments. This role is vital in ensuring that individuals receive the care they need in the comfort of their own homes, fostering a sense of security and well-being.
