Private Duty Caregiver CNA HHA

Assisting Hands Home Care is hiring private duty caregivers, CNAs, and HHAs to help seniors and adults remain safe and comfortable at home.

This is a W2 employee position. It is not a 1099 contractor role or registry position.

Private duty home care is personal work. You are not running from room to room in a facility. You are helping one client at a time with the daily support they need to stay in their home.

We are a local, family owned home care agency operated by a husband and wife team. We are looking for caregivers who take pride in being dependable, professional, and kind.

Pay is typically $16 to $18 dollars per hour for most cases. Higher rates may be available for select assignments based on client needs, schedule, location, and case complexity.

What makes this role different
  • You provide one on one care in a client home
  • You are hired as a W2 employee, not an independent contractor
  • You have office support when questions or issues come up
  • You receive clear client information before starting a case
  • You can be matched with cases based on your skills, availability, client needs, and reasonable travel distance
  • You may have access to weekday, weekend, daytime, evening, and some overnight shifts
  • Minimum 4 hour shifts are available, with longer 8 hour and 12 hour shifts depending on client needs
  • Same day pay access is available through TapCheck
  • Direct deposit and referral bonuses are available
What private duty caregivers do
Your job is to help clients with the daily activities that allow them to remain safe, clean, comfortable, and supported at home. Common responsibilities include:
  • Personal care such as 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
  • Clear communication with the office about changes, concerns, or schedule issues
Every client is different. Some clients need hands on care. Others need supervision, reminders, companionship, or help around the home. We work to place caregivers on cases that fit their experience, availability, and comfort level whenever possible.

This is home care, so the work takes place in client homes rather than one fixed location. A good fit for this role is someone comfortable traveling to different client homes within a reasonable local service area.

Who we are looking for
This role is best for caregivers who are reliable, calm, and professional. Clients and families depend on caregivers to arrive on time, communicate clearly, follow the care plan, and treat the home with respect.

If you enjoy building trust with clients and doing steady, meaningful care work, private duty home care may be a strong fit.

Requirements
  • Valid Florida CNA license or HHA certificate required
  • Successful completion of a Level II Background Screening required. Florida Clearinghouse: https://info.flclearinghouse.com
  • Classroom CPR certification required
  • Completion of Florida required trainings, including HIV AIDS, Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias, and Assistance With Self Administration of Medication
  • Reliable transportation to client homes
  • Caregiving experience with seniors or adults who need personal care assistance
  • Strong communication skills
  • Professional and dependable attitude
  • Comfort with pets preferred, since many clients have animals in the home
