Thinking about moving from a facility to home care? Please read this first.
Home care is a different job than working in a hospital or nursing facility, and the CNAs who do best with us know that going in.
In a facility, you may care for many residents in one shift and move quickly from task to task. At Assisting Hands Home Care, you care for one client at a time, in their home, often for several hours. You will help with personal care, but much of your time is spent with your client: talking, cooking together, taking a walk, and keeping them engaged. Being good company is a core part of this role, not an extra.
You May Love This Role If:
- You have wished you had more time to truly get to know the people you care for
- You prefer a calm, one-on-one setting over a fast-paced floor
- You like seeing the same faces every week
- You stay on track without a charge nurse nearby
This May Not Be the Right Fit If:
- You prefer fast-paced, task-based work
- You are looking for PRN or occasional shifts only
- You need a schedule that changes from week to week
Responsibilities
- Companionship, conversation, and activities that keep clients engaged
- Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility
- Meal preparation and light housekeeping
- Running errands and accompanying clients to appointments
- Documenting each visit and reporting changes promptly
Requirements
- Active North Carolina CNA certification or PCA
- Reliable transportation (not necessary to provide transportation for clients)
- Consistent availability and a strong attendance record
- Ability to follow care plans and instructions independently
What We Offer
- Pay: $16-$18 per hour
- Full-time and part-time openings with steady client assignments
- Compatibility-based client matching
- Guidance on how home care differs from facility work, plus responsive office support
- Room to grow with a family and veteran-owned agency
