Senior Care CNA HHA Caregiver

Assisting Hands Home Care

There is a big difference between completing tasks and truly helping someone. Assisting Hands Home Care is hiring compassionate CNAs and HHAs who want to help seniors and adults live safely and comfortably in their own homes. We serve clients throughout Ponte Vedra Beach, St Johns County, Jacksonville, and surrounding areas.

In a facility, you may be responsible for several people at a time. Home care is different. You work with one client at a time. You can learn their routine, understand what matters to them, and build a real relationship. For many caregivers, that is what made them want to work in healthcare in the first place.

You may care for:
• Seniors who want to age safely at home
• Military veterans
• Disabled adults
• People recovering after an illness or surgery
• Clients who need personal care
• People who need companionship or supervision

Some people need hands on help with bathing, dressing, or transfers. Others need meals, reminders, companionship, light housekeeping, or help getting through the day safely.

Typical pay is $17+ per hour for most cases. Higher rates may be available for select assignments. We offer:
• Part time and full time opportunities
• Day evening weekend and some overnight shifts
• Four hour minimum shifts
• Eight hour and twelve hour shifts when available
• W2 employment
• Payroll taxes handled by our agency
• Same day pay access through Tap Check

Assisting Hands Home Care is owned by a local husband and wife team and our owners are involved every day. We believe caregivers provide better care when they feel respected, heard, and appreciated.
