About The Position

Haven Home Care is hiring Home Health Aides in Summit County, Ohio. Applicants can qualify through an active or expired STNA license, an HHA certificate of at least 30 hours, at least one year of qualifying experience under an RN or LPN, or a free 32-hour online training course for applicants with no caregiving experience. The employer estimates start timelines of 1–3 days for STNAs, 5–8 days for applicants with an HHA certificate, and 1–2 weeks for new trainees. The role is a W-2 position, and candidates must be able to work at least 20 hours per week.

Aides visit clients’ homes, primarily serving older adults, to help with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, meals, light cleaning, errands, mobility, and companionship. Aides do not administer medication or perform medical tasks. The work is physical and involves being on one’s feet much of the day. Shifts vary from about 2–3 hours to 8 hours, depending on client needs. Aides generally build regular schedules with multiple clients, and drive time between clients is paid; travel to the first client and home from the last client is unpaid.

Candidates complete a phone conversation, an online questionnaire, applicable training or testing, online paperwork, an online orientation with identity and work-authorization document verification, and fingerprinting. Ohio requires Home Health Aides to pass written and skills competency tests at 80% or higher unless an eligible prior test result or STNA license waives the test. The job includes a performance-based raise schedule, referral and attendance bonuses, and an additional 10% pay on holidays. The employer states that it does not offer PTO, a 401(k), or health insurance.
