The Continuing Care Assistant (CCA) Pilot Program is designed to help meet our communities’ need for more elder care in Nova Scotia – faster.

Classes began on April 1^st, and 22 students will complete a combination of classroom and practical work for six months to become a CCA. A second class will start in October.
