Any leg up they can have on their competitors is going to drive more hires. So what does a Home Care Commission in Oregon have to do with [hiring Caregivers](http://mycnajobs.com/hire) at your agency? A recent article in a local Oregon newspaper chronicles a group of home care workers that have been working to enact change in the industry since 2000. This allowed them to unionize, as well as helped create a Home Care Commission in the local government. The Commission and union recently finished newest agreement between the two, which offers a number of new training avenues for care workers. This includes online training as well as training in multiple languages for Caregivers who aren’t native english speakers. Advances like these are going to be a necessary part of [Caregiver recruiting ](http://mycnajobs.com/hire)in order to attract and keep enough workers in the profession. We see more and more agencies taking the lead on finding new ways to empower their workers. These are the agencies having the most success in their Caregiver and [CNA recruitment ](http://mycnajobs.com/hire)efforts. Cheryl Miller, executive director of the Oregon Home Care Commission said “We’re trying to drive people to this tremendously rewarding work.” As we talked about in our earlier post [Is the Grass Greener for Caregivers and CNAs Outside of Home Care Recruitment?](https://employer.mycnajobs.com/blog/is-the-grass-greener-for-caregivers-and-cnas), there’s plenty of competition from other industries.
