Haven Home Care • Bath, OH

About The Position

Haven Home Care is hiring Home Health Aides to provide in-home support to primarily older adults in Summit County, Ohio. The role involves helping clients with daily 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, with aides on their feet for much of the day and helping clients move around. Travel between clients is required; drive time between clients is paid, while travel to the first client and home from the last client is unpaid.

Applicants may qualify through an active or expired STNA license, a qualifying HHA certificate, at least one year of qualifying supervised experience, or Haven Home Care’s free 32-hour online training. The hiring timeline depends on the path: 1–3 days for STNAs, 5–8 days for certificate holders, 5–8 days after verification for experienced applicants, and 1–2 weeks for those taking the free training. HHA applicants and experienced applicants take an in-person competency test at the Cuyahoga Falls office unless they have qualifying prior test results; STNAs skip the test. The role pays $16–$18 per hour depending on qualifications and interview, with STNAs paid $18 per hour and people completing free training paid $16 per hour. Additional pay applies for holidays and certain referred private-pay clients. The position is W-2, with direct deposit and biweekly pay.

Aides provide care to clients matched according to their stated limits, including travel distance, pets, smoking, days, and times. Shifts vary from about 2–3 hours to 8 hours, depending on client needs. The employer says aides generally have 2–4 regular clients and may pick up additional fill-in shifts. Applicants must be available for at least 20 hours per week and within the 6 AM–8 PM availability window; most work is 8 AM–5 PM. Attendance and reliability are emphasized because clients depend on aides showing up as scheduled. Performance reviews at 90 days, one year, and two years offer opportunities for hourly raises, subject to the stated evaluation criteria. The employer also offers attendance and referral bonuses.

The employer explicitly states that the position has no paid time off, 401(k), or health insurance. Time off is unpaid, and one month’s notice is requested. Haven Home Care is an Equal Opportunity Employer and an E-Verify participant.

Requirements

• Valid driver’s license.
• Own a car with insurance that covers work driving.
• Pass background checks.
• Work at least 20 hours per week.
• Be available to work between 6 AM and 8 PM; most work is 8 AM–5 PM.
• Have legal authorization to work in the United States.

• Qualify through one of the stated paths: an active or expired STNA license; an HHA certificate of at least 30 hours signed by an RN unless completed online; at least one year with one employer under an RN or LPN supervisor and verifiable directly with that employer; or completion of Haven Home Care’s free 32-hour online HHA course.
• Applicants qualifying through the experience path must have a former employer able to directly verify dates of employment, at least one year of work, and RN or LPN supervision; third-party verification services that cannot verify supervision do not meet this requirement.
• HHA certificate holders and experience-path applicants must pass the employer’s competency test unless they provide qualifying results from an HHA test taken elsewhere. The test requires at least 80% on both written and skills portions. STNAs skip the test.
• Be able to perform physical work, including helping clients move and being on one’s feet for much of the day.
• Commit to the agreed schedule and maintain reliable attendance.
