Which of the following is NOT a key responsibility of a Home Health Aide?

The responsibility of conducting surgeries does not fall within the scope of practice for a Home Health Aide. Home Health Aides are trained primarily to assist individuals with daily living activities, which can include personal care tasks, helping clients manage hygiene and dressing, and supporting them in maintaining a clean living environment.

Administering medications typically requires more advanced training and is generally performed by licensed nurses or healthcare professionals to ensure that clients receive the correct medications in the right doses and at the appropriate times.

In contrast, maintaining a clean environment is an important part of a Home Health Aide's duties, as it promotes safety and comfort for the client. Therefore, conducting surgeries is a clear outlier in the context of responsibilities typically assigned to Home Health Aides.
