Restorative Aide Online Course

A Restorative Aide functions in an expanded nurse aide role as they perform duties to help residents function as normally as possible. These duties go beyond rehabilitation; they are a process of therapeutic treatments or approaches that restore and maintain the highest level of functioning a resident can possess.
