The Home Care Workforce Action Alliance is a new organization that has been formed with the goal of attracting more people into home care and personal services.
 
The group looks to tackle insufficient compensation, benefits, training and career growth opportunities, as well as federal and state policy reforms, says William Dombi, president of the National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC).
 
He notes changes will require various stakeholders working together, including representatives of patients, direct care professionals, congress, governors and state legislators, educators and more.
 
“We’ve all recognized this is a problem that needs to be addressed, but we all continue to work within our silos,” Dombi said. “By joining together, we can succeed.”
 
The alliance has launched a campaign, Voices for Care at Home, that looks to amplify the stories of those struggling to get the critical care their family needs.
