Want to Know Everything Before You Apply

If youre the type who wants complete transparency about how client matching works what the week-by-week experience looks like and every detail of the process - keep reading below.

The Complete Picture : How Haven Really Works

Understanding Client Matching (The Full Truth)

Client availability changes daily. Sometimes we have 5 clients ready immediately. If not were actively acquiring new clients and you can expect to get started within 1-2 weeks. Heres what determines your timeline :

Your Availability Matters :

6AM-8PM availability First pick of everything

8AM-5PM availability This is where 80% of care hours exist - youll have good options

Morning-only or evening-only Limited but possible

After 4PM only You wont hit the 20-hour minimum (most clients need daytime care)

Your Preferences Impact Speed : The more specific your requirements (no pets no smoking limited drive radius specific days only) the longer matching takes. This isnt punishment - its math. We respect your boundaries completely but fewer clients will match.

During Your Phone Interview Well Tell You :

We have clients ready NOW Finish hiring fast work fast

Fill-in shifts available Start earning immediately while we match you permanently

No current matches yet 1-2 week wait while we acquire new clients (well ask if that works for you)

Why Delays Happen (The Reality)

Were actively getting new clients daily but its not instant :

Clients need assessments

Insurance requires approval

Families need coordination meetings

Sometimes clients delay their own start dates

Bottom line : More flexibility faster placement. Need guaranteed immediate hours This role isnt structured for that. Can wait 1-3 weeks for the right match that respects your preferences Thats our specialty.

How Fill-In Work Becomes Permanent

Fill-in shifts are always available because caregivers call off unexpectedly. When you take a fill-in shift two things can happen :

Its covering a call-off One-time shift

Its an unstaffed visit slot If the dynamic works between you and the client that time slot becomes yours permanently

This is how you can build your permanent schedule faster during your first 2 weeks.

Week-by-Week Reality

Week 1-2 : Orientation Period

Fill-in assignments at $16 / hour

Must be flexible with locations and times during this period

Keep any clients where the match works and becomes permanent

Build toward your target weekly hours

Week 3 : Your Regular Schedule

Permanent clients matched to your confirmed preferences

Consistent weekly schedule

Still available for additional fill-in shifts if desired

Day 30 : $100 Bonus Hits your account if you maintained perfect attendance and punctuality during your first 30 days

Client Match Not Working Tell us immediately. We respect that sometimes personalities dont mesh unexpected issues arise or preferences change. Wed rather reassign you than lose you. Be completely open with our care coordination team.

No Growth Pathway : Were being honest - theres no ladder to climb here. This is a caregiving role and it stays a caregiving role. What grows is your relationships with clients and your weekly paycheck through referral bonuses.

What Makes Haven Different from Other Agencies

Other agencies :

Force you to drive outside your preferred range

Assign mandatory overtime

Place you with smoking clients when you dont want smokers

Assign you to homes with pets despite allergies

Constantly rotate your schedule

Haven :

Respects your geographic boundaries

No mandatory overtime (40-hour max)

Wont assign you to clients who smoke if you dont want smokers

Wont assign you to homes with pets if youre allergic or uncomfortable

Same clients every week after matching

The tradeoff : Respecting your preferences means fewer available client matches for you. Were upfront about this because its the honest reality.

State Testing Requirement (Important Compliance Note)

All home health aides in Ohio must pass a state-compliant written and skills test at 80% or higher. This is a regulatory requirement not our policy.

If youve already taken this test at another agency : Provide those results and you wont need to retest (as long as you scored 80%)

If you havent tested yet : We administer it as part of your hiring process

Client Types Youll Serve

Primarily elderly clients needing assistance with daily living

Some disabled clients requiring personal care support

Post-surgical or rehabilitation clients needing temporary assistance

Clients with mild cognitive decline needing companionship and safety

You will NOT : Administer medications perform wound care or handle complex medical procedures
