Haven Home Care • Barberton, OH

3d • Onsite

About The Position

Haven Home Care is hiring Home Health Aides to provide in-home assistance to primarily older adults in Summit County, Ohio. The position has four qualification and onboarding paths: an active or expired STNA license, an HHA certificate with at least 30 hours of training, at least one year of qualifying employment under an RN or LPN, or completion of the employer’s free 32-hour online HHA training course. Depending on the path, the estimated time to start is 1–3 days, 5–8 days, or 1–2 weeks. Applicants must pass the required competency test unless they qualify for an exemption, and must complete orientation, document verification, and fingerprinting.

Daily work takes place in clients’ homes and includes assistance with bathing, dressing, meals, light cleaning, errands, companionship, and mobility. Aides do not administer medication or perform medical tasks. The work is physical and involves being on one’s feet for much of the day. Shifts vary by client need, from approximately 2–3 hours to 8 hours per visit. Aides generally have several clients across different days; most have 2–4 regular clients. The employer matches aides with clients based on their stated availability, travel range, and preferences. The role requires at least 20 hours per week, availability between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. (most work is 8 a.m.–5 p.m.), a driver’s license, a personal vehicle with insurance covering work driving, background checks, U.S. work authorization, and being at least 18 years old.

Pay is $18 per hour for STNAs, $16–$18 per hour based on interview for HHA certificate holders and applicants with qualifying experience, and $16 per hour for applicants with no experience using the free-training path. Pay for referred private-pay clients is $19 per hour for HHAs and $20 per hour for STNAs. Drive time between clients is paid, but travel to the first client and from the last client is not. Employees are paid every two weeks by direct deposit as W-2 employees. The employer describes performance-based raises at 90 days, one year, and two years, along with attendance and referral bonuses. The posting states that there is no PTO, 401(k), or health insurance; time off is unpaid and requires one month’s notice.
