    About the Program

    The CBRF Caregiver Program prepares students to assist clients who live in group homes with aspects of daily living, such as meal planning, supervising medication administration and assisting clients in coping with specific disabilities. Community-based residential facilities provide community living for persons with a variety of physical or developmental disabilities. State regulations now require all employees of community based residential facilities (CBRFs) to have passed one or more of these basic certification courses. These courses meet DHFS regulations mandating training for CBRF caregivers.

    Career Potential

    CBRF Cargivers can work in homes for the developmentally disabled, Alzheimer's clients and the elderly.
