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, a qualifying HHA certificate, at least one year of verified experience under an RN or LPN, or the employer’s free 32-hour online training course. The onboarding timeline ranges from 1–3 days for STNAs to 1–2 weeks for applicants taking the training path. HHA testing includes written and practical skills portions, both requiring a score of at least 80%, unless the applicant provides qualifying prior test results or is an STNA. Testing takes place in person at the Cuyahoga Falls office.

The work involves visiting clients’ homes, primarily to assist older adults with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, meals, light cleaning, errands, and companionship. Home Health Aides do not administer medication or perform medical tasks. The work is physical, involves being on one’s feet for much of the day, and may require travel between clients. Shifts vary from approximately 2–3 hours to 8 hours, depending on client needs. The position requires at least 20 hours of work per week and availability between 6 AM and 8 PM; most work is between 8 AM and 5 PM. Client assignments are matched to the aide’s stated travel range, availability, and preferences. Drive time between clients is paid, but travel to the first and from the last client is not.

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 with no experience completing free training. Referred private-pay clients pay $19 per hour for HHAs and $20 per hour for STNAs. Employees are paid every two weeks by direct deposit as W-2 employees. Holiday work pays 10% extra. Performance reviews at 90 days, one year, and two years can provide raises totaling up to $2 per hour. Bonuses include $100 for perfect attendance during the first 30 days, referral bonuses for Home Health Aides, and bonuses for referring private-pay clients.

The employer states that the position has no paid time off, 401(k), or health insurance. Time off is unpaid and requires one month’s notice. The role is described as a W-2 position, and Haven Home Care is an Equal Opportunity Employer and E-Verify participant.
