As regulated health professionals, Health Care Aides (HCAs) are required to demonstrate a commitment to continuing competence by meeting the requirements established in the Standards of Practice for HCAs on Continuing Competence and relevant policies.
The CLHA’s continuing competence program (CCP) improves the delivery of care to clients by having a province-wide program that requires HCAs to complete activities for professional development.
More information about the CCP will be shared once the requirements have been finalized.
HCAs will be required to complete the free module, Protecting Patients from Sexual Abuse and Sexual Misconduct, by November 30, 2026.
