View Award Description

Safety and Health for Home Care Aides in Healthcare and Social Assistance: The Safe Home Care Intervention Study - This resubmission of a competitive renewal application for NIOSH PAR-18-812, addresses the NORA sector Healthcare and Social Assistance and NORA cross-sectors: 1) musculoskeletal health, 2) respiratory health, 3) infectious disease prevention, and 4) traumatic injury prevention. The long-term goal of the study is to protect the occupational safety and health (OSH) of home care (HC) aides. Due to the rapidly aging population, HC aide jobs are among the fastest growing occupations. There is increasing evidence that aides experience many serious OSH hazards to which they are particularly vulnerable because they are low-wage workers and yet there are few HC OSH intervention studies. A major challenge for HC OSH is that the employer has limited control over the work environment because it is a home. To address these challenges, the proposed intervention study will engage HC employers and case managers (CMs), clients and their families, in changing the home-work environment to reduce hazards for HC aides. The overall objectives are to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and the implementation process and to translate findings to reduce OSH hazards, illness, and injuries among HC aides. The study builds on a highly productive, multidisciplinary research team working with an extensive, active industry-labor-public health-elder services partnership network. Central hypotheses are a) HC aide OSH hazards can be reduced by clients and families with assistance and tools from HC employers and CMs introduced during a client's home assessment; and b) the interventions will lead to fewer OSH hazards to HC aides.
