PCOA During the Pandemic
Accessing Services During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Due to the ongoing pandemic, many resources listed in this guide have temporarily
changed their operating hours, locations and guidelines. We strongly suggest making
contact by phone or email or checking websites for updated information before visiting
any physical service location.

This is true for PCOA’s services, as well. While we have continued to provide most services
in some format throughout the pandemic, we encourage you to call our Helpline at
(520) 790-7262 or email help@pcoa.org to determine how we can best assist you. You
can also visit our website pcoa.org for up-to-date information about how to access our
services, including classes and events being offered remotely.

PCOA has developed a plan for which facilities and services will resume in-person service
based on data about the level of COVID-19 spread in our community. Our goal is always
to ensure the greatest access to services possible to those who need our help most.
Throughout the pandemic, PCOA never stopped serving the public, and as we bring
back in-person services, we remain committed to continuing to offer assistance in a
variety of formats to meet the needs of older adults.

A New Addition to PCOA’s Programming – The CareGiver
Training Institute
In April 2020, PCOA greatly expanded our impact in the area of direct care workforce
development by bringing the CareGiver Training Institute (CGTI) into the PCOA family
of nonprofit companies as a subsidiary organization.

Since opening its doors nearly 20 years ago, the CareGiver Training Institute (CGTI) has
educated and provided career coaching and job placement support to over 3,600 students
who have made a difference in the lives of more than 250,000 people in southern Arizona.
CGTI offers classes to become certified nursing assistants, certified caregivers, and assistant
living managers.

Frontline healthcare workers will remain in high demand for decades to come due to
Arizona’s increasing older adult population. According to AARP, 10,000 Americans across
the country turn 65 every day and will require the skilled care and support of trained
healthcare professionals. Together, PCOA and the CareGiver Training Institute are
working to train members of our community in meaningful, stable careers to address
this growing need.

To learn more about training opportunities, call (520) 325-4870, email
learnmore@cgtiaz.org, or visit cgtiaz.org.

PCOA During the Pandemic
El acceso a los servicios durante la pandemia del COVID-19
Debido a la actual pandemia, muchos de los recursos mencionados en esta guía han modificado
considerablemente sus horas hábiles, ubicaciones y lineamientos. Le recomendamos
encarecidamente que se ponga en contacto por teléfono o correo electrónico, o que visite los
sitios web para obtener información actualizada antes de acudir a cualquier centro de servicio.

Lo mismo sucede con los servicios de PCOA. Aunque hemos seguido ofreciendo la mayoría de los
servicios en distintas formas durante la pandemia, le sugerimos que se comunique a nuestra línea
de atención al (520) 790-7262 o al correo electrónico help@pcoa.org para ver la mejor forma de
atenderle. También puede visitar nuestro sitio web pcoa.org para obtener información sobre cómo
recibir nuestros servicios, incluyendo clases y eventos que se ofrecen a distancia.

PCOA ha desarrollado un plan con el cual se reanudará la atención presencial en servicios y
centros de atención con base en la información sobre el nivel de propagación del COVID-19 en
nuestra comunidad. Nuestra meta es asegurar siempre el mayor acceso a los servicios a quienes
necesiten más de nuestra ayuda. Durante toda la pandemia, PCOA no ha dejado de atender al
público, y a medida que reanudamos los servicios presenciales, seguimos comprometidos en
seguir ofreciendo ayuda en distintas formas para cumplir con las necesidades de los adultos
mayores.

Una nueva adición a los programas de PCOA: CareGiver Training
Institute
En abril de 2020, PCOA expandió considerablemente su atención en el área de desarrollo de
personal de atención directa mediante la incorporación del CareGiver Training Institute (CGTI)
al grupo de organizaciones sin fines de lucro de PCOA como organización subsidiaria.

Desde que abrió sus puertas hace aproximadamente 20 años, el CareGiver Training Institute (CGTI)
ha informado y proporcionado capacitación sobre carreras y apoyo en la colocación laboral a más
de 3 600 estudiantes que han marcado la diferencia en la vida de más de 250 000 personas en el
sur de Arizona. CGTI ofrece clases formar a personas como asistentes de enfermería certificados,
cuidadores certificados y directores de vida asistida.

Los trabajadores de la salud de primera línea seguirán en alta demanda durante las siguientes
décadas debido a la creciente población de adultos mayores. Según la AARP, cada día 10 000
estadounidenses en el país cumplen 65 años de edad y requerirán la atención especializada y el
apoyo de profesionales de la salud capacitados. PCOA y el CareGiver Training Institute trabajan en
conjunto para capacitar a miembros de nuestra comunidad en carreras estables e importantes a fin
de atender esta creciente necesidad.

Para conocer más sobre estas oportunidades de capacitación, comuníquese al teléfono
(520) 325-4870 o al correo electrónico learnmore@cgtiaz.org o visite el sitio cgtiaz.org.

older adults. The program includes eight two-hour classes presented to a small group of 8-12
