Home Health Aide

Home Health Aide


Duties and Responsibilities: Practitioners are required to perform home management tasks such as housekeeping, laundry and other tasks that may pertain. They may also be required to help groom the patient in need of the care. Preparing foods that are healthy an beneficiary to the patient can also be done. Practitioners are basically responsible for the care of the patient in every aspect.

Salary: The salary is about $9.00 but may range depending the majority of tasks as well as the amount of time spent with the patient.                                                 

Education: A thorough education is not really required but what they really need a current HHA certificate. Perhaps the most important requirement is that the person has outstanding communication skills and patience.                                                         
 Reflection: I would probably not want to be a practitioner because of the fact that there would be a huge responsibility put on me by taking care of a sick person.
