What You'll Need

Required:

  • High school diploma or GED
  • At least 18 years old
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
  • Able to read, write, and speak English to follow care plans and communicate with clients and staff

Preferred:

  • Experience caring for others, personally or professionally
  • Comfortable working independently in a client's home

Pay & Benefits

  • $16–$20/hour, based on shift, level of care, and weekend scheduling
  • Extra pay for holidays and weekends worked
  • Daily overtime opportunities for eligible shifts
  • Paid sick time
  • Free scholarship for online training to become a Certified Home Health Aide
  • Flexible per diem schedule — pick up day, evening, or night shifts

Schedule: Per diem. Days, evenings, and nights available; you choose what fits your life.
