Caregivers

Haven Home Care | Hiring Caregivers in Summit County, Ohio WORK WHILE THE HOUSE IS QUIET Need a job that fits inside your day? Most of our care happens between 8AM and 5PM. Many shifts run 2-6 hours in the middle of the day. No overnights. Ever. At your phone interview, you tell us the days and times you can work — like 9AM to 2:30PM. We match clients to YOUR window. The honest part: a tighter window means a smaller pool of matching clients, so your schedule may take longer to fill. We explain exactly how that works below. BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR A WHILE? That's okay. Raising kids, helping a parent, time away for any reason — none of that counts against you here. If you spent years taking care of people at home, you already do this work. We train you free, and no experience is needed to start. What The Work Is You help people in their homes. Mostly older adults. Baths, getting dressed, meals, light cleaning, errands, companionship. This is physical work — you're on your feet most of the day and you help people move around. If you need help doing these tasks, tell us. We can talk about what might work. You do NOT give medicine or do medical tasks. That's for nurses. THE PAY STNA license: $18/hour HHA certificate or experience: $16-18/hour based on interview Free training pathway: $16/hour A private pay client you referred: HHA $19/hour, STNA $20/hour 10% extra on holidays. Paid every 2 weeks. Direct deposit. W-2 job. Drive time between clients is paid. To your first client or from your last is not. Three performance raises in your first 2 years: +$0.50 at 90 days, +$0.50 at 1 year, +$1.00 at 2 years. Miss one and it carries over. MORE WAYS TO EARN $100 after 30 days with perfect attendance. $300 when you refer a caregiver who stays — $100 at 60 hours, $200 more at 200 hours. $75-$1,500 when you refer a private pay client, based on their hours. FOUR WAYS TO QUALIFY STNA (active or expired): $18/hour, 1-3 days, skip our test. HHA certificate (30+ hours, RN-signed unless done online): $16-18/hour, 5-8 days. Experience — 1+ year at one company under an RN or LPN: $16-18/hour, 5-8 days after we verify. No experience — free 32-hour online training (6 days to finish, not paid): $16/hour, 1-2 weeks. CAN'T VERIFY YOUR EXPERIENCE? CERTIFICATE DOESN'T QUALIFY? Maybe the company you worked for closed. Maybe there's no one left to call, or they only use a service like The Work Number. That's okay. You're not turned away. You can still join by taking our free online training to qualify. And because you already have a care background, your pay stays based on your interview ($16-18/hour), not the brand-new rate. Only people with no experience at all start at $16. Every path: phone talk (20 min) → short online questionnaire → test if needed → sign paperwork online → online orientation + document check (30-40 min) → fingerprinting. About The Test Ohio requires a written and skills test for HHAs — 80% on both parts. You take it in person at our Cuyahoga Falls office. We schedule the time with you. One thing we ask: our nurse drives to the office just for your test — nothing else. If you can't make it, text View phone number on click.appcast.io BEFORE your test time. We'll reschedule you, no problem. But if you just don't show up, our nurse waited for nothing. We take that seriously. STNAs skip the test — your license proves you passed. Already passed an HHA test with 80% or higher somewhere else? Show us your results and you skip it too. How Client Matching Works You tell us your limits during your phone interview: pets, smoking, travel distance, days and times. We only assign clients that match YOUR limits. Period. THE GUARANTEE If you can travel anywhere we have clients AND work with any client — you WILL start working. Quickly. We always have clients somewhere. And if there's no immediate match in your area, you're first in line when one opens up. THE REALITY: If you have travel limits or preferences — specific cities, certain days/times, no pets, no smoking — we respect them 100%. But your client availability WILL be smaller. That's not a "maybe," that's math. A school-hour window is one of those limits. Example: we have 5 clients open today, but 3 of them need afternoons past 3PM. Your matching pool is the other 2. If neither fits your area, you wait for one that does. The stricter your limits, the longer the wait. Every time. During your first 2 weeks, we gauge reliability with fill-in shifts. But if permanent clients match you right away, we assign them right away. After that, you have your regular clients — same people every week. Most caregivers have 2-4 regulars. You can still pick up extra fill-ins if you want more hours. About Shift Lengths Shifts can be as short as 2-3 hours per visit. Some are 4-6 hours. Some are 8. If a client needs help with a morning bath and breakfast, that's a 2-hour shift. To get to your 20+ hours a week, you'll usually have several clients across different days. WHAT "FLEXIBLE" MEANS HERE "Flexible" means the days and times you told us you can work. "Flexible" does NOT mean calling off whenever you want or skipping shifts you don't feel like doing. Our clients are older adults who depend on you showing up. A sick kid at home is real life — that's what our call‑off steps are for, and we work with you. What we can't work with is no‑shows and last‑minute call‑offs as a habit. Attendance is part of the raise criteria. Don't be the reason a client leaves Haven. If your life changes and you need different hours, tell us. We can work with you. What You Need Driver's license. Your own car with insurance that covers work driving. Pass background checks. Work at least 20 hours/week. Available between 6AM-8PM (you set your window inside that). Legal right to work in the US. Must be at least 18 years old. No PTO, no 401k, no health insurance — we're upfront about that. WHERE Summit County: Akron, Barberton, Copley, Cuyahoga Falls, Hartville, Hudson, Kent, New Franklin, Norton, Rootstown, Silver Lake, Stow, Tallmadge, Uniontown. We match by how far you'll travel, not just city names.
