Pennsylvania Holds Hearing on the Direct-Care Workforce

"I care for the seniors, but I care just as much for my co-workers and those who are looking to come into this profession. We need your help to invest in the direct-care workforce," hospice nurse aide Brenda Nachtway told the Pennyslvania House Aging and Older Adult Services Committee on April 2. Nachtway, who is co-chair of the Pennsylvania Direct Care Workers Association, was one of several direct-care workers, employers, and other stakeholders to testify at a public hearing on the direct-care workforce.
