Home Health Aide

Home Health Aide (HHA)The Land of Enchantment Calls… The Community - New MexicoNew Mexico's history predates the founding of the English Colonies on the eastern seaboard resulting in a rich tapestry of cultures and peoples dating to the sixteenth century. The blend of Native Americans, Spanish, Mexican, and Anglo cultures is a unique milieu that includes Native American pow wows, Flamenco festivals and tablao's, matanzas, music, art and cuisine, and a hearty cowboy, ranching, and railroad ethos as well. New Mexico is a place like no other with vistas and outdoor opportunities that rival Colorado, cuisine you will experience nowhere else (including fifty-seven micro-breweries) and the third largest Art Scene in the U.S. after New York and Los Angeles. New Mexico is the home of two National Laboratories and more than 100 innovation accelerators producing more patents annually than any state but California, and more innovations per capita than any other state; not to mention the mild weather, 310 days of sunshine, wide-open spaces, and an absurdly low cost of living.
