Private Duty CNA / HHA Caregiver, One-on-One Home Care
Private duty home care is different from facility work. You are not responsible for a hallway of patients. You are helping one person at a time with the daily support they need to remain safe and comfortable at home.
Assisting Hands Home Care is hiring private duty caregivers, CNAs, and HHAs for in-home care opportunities in Jacksonville, Duval County, and nearby areas.
This is a W-2 employee position. It is not a 1099 contractor role or registry position.
We are locally owned by a husband and wife team who are active and accessible. We care about doing home care the right way: clear communication, thoughtful caregiver matching, and respect for the people who care for our clients.
Why Private Duty Caregivers Choose Assisting Hands
- One-on-one care in client homes
- A local office team that communicates clearly
- Flexible schedule options based on client needs and your availability
- Part-time and full-time opportunities
- Weekday, weekend, daytime, evening, and some overnight shifts
- Minimum 4-hour shifts, with 8-hour and 12-hour shifts available when needed
- W-2 employment with payroll taxes handled through payroll
- Same-day pay access through TapCheck
- Direct deposit
- Referral bonuses
- Mileage reimbursement between same-day client visits
- Support from a team that appreciates dependable caregivers
Typical pay is $16 to $18 per hour for most cases. Higher rates may be available for select assignments based on schedule, location, client needs, and case complexity.
What Private Duty Caregivers Do
Your role is to help clients with the activities that allow them to remain clean, safe, comfortable, and supported at home.
Responsibilities may include:
- Personal care, including bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting
- Transfer and mobility assistance
- Meal preparation
- Light housekeeping related to the client
- Medication reminders
- Companionship and conversation
- Help with errands or appointments when included in the care plan
- Communicating clearly with the office about changes, concerns, or schedule issues
Some clients need hands-on personal care. Others need supervision, reminders, companionship, or help around the home. We work to place caregivers on cases that fit their skills, availability, and comfort level whenever possible.
A Good Match for This Role
This position is best for caregivers who are calm, reliable, and professional. Clients and families depend on caregivers to arrive on time, follow the care plan, and treat the home with respect.
If you enjoy steady, meaningful work and like building trust with clients over time, private duty home care may be a better fit than facility-based care.
