About The Position

Haven Home Care is hiring Home Health Aides to provide in-home support to clients, mostly older adults, in Summit County, Ohio. The role involves helping clients with daily life, including bathing, dressing, meals, light cleaning, errands, and companionship. Aides do not administer medication or perform medical tasks; those duties are for nurses. The work is physical, involves helping clients move, and requires being on your feet for much of the day. Aides typically serve 2–4 regular clients, with shifts ranging from 2–3 hours to 8 hours depending on client needs. Drive time between clients is paid; travel to the first client and home from the last client is not.

Applicants may 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 Haven Home Care’s free 32-hour online training course. The hiring process includes a phone conversation, online questionnaire, applicable HHA testing, online paperwork and orientation, document verification, and fingerprinting. Training-path applicants must finish the unpaid online course within six days. HHA competency testing includes written and practical skills portions, both requiring at least 80%, and is conducted in person at the Cuyahoga Falls office. Applicants with qualifying prior test results may skip the test, and STNAs skip it based on their license.

The position requires a driver’s license, a personal car with insurance covering work driving, passing background checks, legal authorization to work in the U.S., being at least 18 years old, working at least 20 hours per week, and availability between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. (most work is 8 a.m.–5 p.m.). Employees tell the agency their travel limits and preferences, including pets, smoking, distance, days, and times; client assignments are matched to those limits. The employer expects reliable attendance and communication. Time off is unpaid, and employees are asked to give one month’s notice.

Pay is $18 per hour for STNAs, $16–$18 per hour based on interview for applicants with an HHA certificate or qualifying experience, and $16 per hour for applicants entering through free training. Employees earn 10% extra on holidays and are paid every two weeks by direct deposit as W-2 employees. Pay increases are available through reviews at 90 days, one year, and two years, totaling up to $2 per hour. Additional bonuses include $100 for 30 days of perfect attendance, up to $300 for referring a Home Health Aide who stays, and $75–$1,500 for referring a private-pay client. There is no PTO, 401(k), or health insurance.
