To address the shortage of direct care workers in Michigan, Resthaven will create a pathway for skilled but underemployed immigrants, focusing on training and certifying them as Certified Nursing Assistants. This initiative will provide tailored support, including language training, mentorship, and job placement, improving care for older adults while promoting workforce diversity and health equity.
