I work as a Case Specific Home Health Aide, which means that I work with only one client, and I do so on a regular basis. It's very rewarding work, as you can clearly see the difference you're making in someones life. You also get a chance to build up a very good relationship with your care receiver; you will probably become very good friends.
It is also a lot of work, however, and can be very stressful. It's difficult to spend several hours a day giving someone complete care, as they are often entirely dependent upon you. There will be times you just want to take a break.
Despite all of the stress that can come with this work, I would still recommend this to people who want to help others. Like I said before, it's very rewarding. At the end of the day you'll feel good about what you're doing.
This is a great career for those who sincerely like people and feel good about helping others. This is something that I would definitely do again. The feeling of knowing that you have helped people to be able to live in their own homes and have a better quality of life is wonderful.
Its good to find a reliable agency to work for. I like this field and love working with people. Yes I would recommend this career. You learn to work with alot of different types of individuals with different needs. There is alot of companionship and compassion. you build a good relationship with your clients. Occasionally you might have a grumpy client that doesnt want you to be there, but I just smile and try to do the best job I can to assist them and help them to have a good day!!!
