The Irish Association of Healthcare Assistants (IAHA) is a self-regulatory body for Healthcare Assistants. Its aim is to elevate the professional standard and performance of Healthcare Assistants through a formal recognised qualification, continued professional development and advocacy, while striving to build strong alliances with all Health Professionals and Agencies to maximise quality care for Service Users. The association was developed based on the need for developing national minimum standards of training and a professional code of conduct in relation to Healthcare Assistants. Membership is a key feature of the service through which high standards of professional conduct, professional education, training and competence among those registered will promote confidence in competence among those registered will promote confidence in the sector.
