Feature Project

Direct Care Worker Industry Geospatial Analysis & Mapping

RS&GIS is proud to be partnering with IMPART Alliance at Michigan State University to address the need for affordable, high-quality in-home support for Michigan families by increasing the availability of skilled Direct Care Workers (DCWs). The role of RS&GIS is to perform geospatial analysis and mapping that provides information from a geographic perspective to DCWs, employers and families so that they can make informed decisions about health care and employment. This requires analysis of numerous datasets, including Census data, existing providers/employers, available training opportunities and more.
