Person-Centered, Continuity of Care through Education and Practice

NCCAP Certifications ensure continuity of care, reduce costs and improve quality of life
Since 1986, Certification by NCCAP has ensured the highest quality engagement and person-centered care. From aging in place at home and along the journey of long-term care, continuity of care is critical. Based on the Social Model of Care, NCCAP certification delivers knowledge and skills for assessment, communication, engagement, planning and socialization. The right approach and techniques can help guide someone to bathe, go to therapy, take their medications or play a game. Knowing how to apply the right behavioral intervention can reduce risk of injury and improve quality of life.
