Home Health Aide Jobs
Home Health Aide (HHA) is a certified professional with substantial training. Under the supervision of a nurse, HHAs are trained to perform tasks such as changing dressings or assisting with the administration of prescribed medications. Home care assignments are typically more independent settings, and on-site nursing supervision may not be available, so these tasks are comparatively rare. Home health aides care for physically, mentally or emotionally ill or injured people in the client’s home. Under the supervision of medical staff, home health aides may take vital signs, keep rooms neat, and help patients move, dress and bathe.
Mobility support including transfers exceeding 50% of the body weight may be necessary, so training in both proper technique and use of durable medical equipment like Hoyer Lift is also required. Patients may be recently discharged from the hospital and only need short-term care, or require extensive care that friends and family are unable to provide.
Other duties may include: assistance with activities of daily living, bathing, dressing, eating, light housecleaning or household chores, such as grocery shopping, running errands and preparing meals, and transportation to appointments. For more detail on being a Home Health Aide.
