abstract: 'Objectives Patient care aides, who provide basic care to patients in a
variety of healthcare settings, have been observed to have higher
prevalences of adverse health metrics than the general US workforce.
However, few studies have examined how healthcare access and health
behaviors and outcomes among patient care aides differ by work setting
(home health, nursing home, and hospital). Methods Data from the 2013 to
2016 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System were used to assess the
prevalences of healthcare access, health-related behaviors, and health
outcomes among patient care aides in different work settings, and among
nurses (licensed vocational/practical and registered). Adjusted
prevalence ratios were used to compare prevalences for healthcare
workers to those for nonhealthcare clerical workers. Results Overall,
patient care aides are a low-wage workforce with high prevalences of
multiple adverse health metrics and low prevalences of positive health
behaviors compared to clerical workers. Results differed by work
setting. Home health aides had the lowest income levels and most adverse
results for multiple metrics; nursing home aides had better healthcare
access and somewhat better health outcomes. Most metrics were best
(though still quite poor) for hospital aides, who showed few significant
differences from clerical workers. Conclusions These results show the
need to focus resources on the patient care aide workforce, particularly
those in home health. While some needs of nursing home aides, such as
improving influenza vaccination coverage and reducing the prevalence of
arthritis-related conditions, would benefit from standardized workplace
interventions, alternate, workplace-specific approaches are needed for
home health aides.'
