In an emotional ceremony held at the Secondary and Higher School No. 1 "Cesáreo Bernaldo de Quirós", certificates were awarded to the participants of the Caregiver Training Course for the Elderly. This training proposal was promoted by the Municipality of Concordia, through the Undersecretariat of Education under the Secretariat of Human Development, in agreement with the Autonomous University of Entre Ríos (UADER) and its Faculty of Life and Health Sciences (FCVyS).
The Mayor, Dr. Francisco Azcué, highlighted the commitment of the graduates and the importance of working together with educational institutions: "This training is an example of the value of articulated work between the Municipality and the University. Today we provide concrete tools to improve the care of those who need it most: our elderly. I congratulate each of the graduates for their effort and dedication".
For his part, the Dean of UADER, Specialist Bioengineer Aníbal Sattler, remarked: "It is the first time that the Faculty has worked with a government body like the Municipality of Concordia on a training course of this type. This experience reinforces our commitment to the training of professionals, technicians, and caregivers, responding to a real need of the community".
The Secretary of Human Development, Sebastián Arístide, underscored the positive impact of these initiatives: "Training caregivers not only improves the quality of care, but also strengthens empathy and respect for our elderly. These actions are a fundamental pillar in the care policies we carry out".
Finally, the Undersecretary of Education, Prof. Carlos Gatto, highlighted the human value of the participants: "This course not only trains caregivers, but also forms people with a vocation for service. I congratulate you for having chosen this path, which requires dedication, responsibility, and a deep love for others".
The Caregiver Training Course for the Elderly, approved by FCVyS CD Resolution No. 376/24 and endorsed by the Ministry of Health of Entre Ríos (Resolution No. 3582), provides a qualifying certification to work in private homes, care institutions, and public or private nursing homes.
With the delivery of more than 50 certificates, a stage was concluded that marks a significant advance in the professionalization of those who dedicate their time and effort to the care of the elderly.
The ceremony was attended by municipal and academic authorities and the graduates' families, who celebrated this achievement with great emotion and pride.
