Home Health Aide

Home Health Aide
Duties and Responsibilities:
            They assist in healthcare for those who are incapable of doing so for themselves. They usually work with the ill, elderly, or incapacitated. Their duties include taking the blood pressure, temperature, and pulse of patients.  They help patients get in and out of bed, take baths, and dress.  They also prepare and serve meals as well as perform housekeeping chores like making beds and cleaning rooms.

Average Salary:  $8,000 - $18,000

Educational Requirements:
Many employers require that HHA’s have at least a high school diploma or GED. Some vocational schools and community colleges can offer training programs.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!


            I do not believe I would like to be a Home Health Aide because it does not pay well for mistreatment that some of these Aides receive from patients.
