Workers who provide personal care in independent residential settings (including retirement communities with minimal or no on-site medical or nursing supervision), are classified in Unit Group 5322: Home-based Personal Care Workers. Home birth assistants, who provide emotional support and general care and advice to women and families during pregnancy and labour, but not delivery care to reduce health risks, are included here. Care workers who provide care and supervision for children in residential home and care centres are classified in Unit Group 5311: Child Care Workers.
