Colorado’s home care workers provide essential skilled care for our loved ones. They work in physically and emotionally demanding jobs, but many go without the time or benefits to care for themselves or their families.
Without adequate time or support to rest and be with their own families or recover when they get sick, home care workers are experiencing high levels of burnout, which impacts the quality of care and drives many to leave the field.
With industry-wide minimum rights to paid sick time, vacation days, paid holidays off, and affordable health insurance for all home care workers, we can create a sustainable care system of thriving, healthy care providers for Coloradans and their families.
