Interior Health adds over 300 positions to training program
People looking to pursue a career in health care will be able to access a local training opportunity.
Interior Health is adding 337 positions to its Health Career Access Program (HCAP).
Of those positions, 205 will be in long-term care, 112 will be in home health, and 20 will be part of a new pilot within acute care at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops.
“We’re proud of HCAP, a joint and fully funded training initiative between the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Training, to address the shortage of health care assistants (HCA),” Minister of Health Adrian Dix said.
