What You'll Do

As an HHA or CNA with Elite Home Healthcare, you'll provide individualized care and support to patients in their homes according to each patient's Plan of Care and under appropriate clinical direction and supervision.

Depending on the patient's Plan of Care, your qualifications, demonstrated competency, and assigned responsibilities, duties may include:

• Assisting with activities of daily living (ADLs), including bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene
• Providing personal care and assistance with mobility, transfers, and positioning
• Performing assigned patient-care tasks within your demonstrated competency and authorized responsibilities
• Providing household services essential to the patient's health and safety
• Assisting with medications that are ordinarily self-administered when permitted by applicable requirements, the patient's Plan of Care, and Elite policy
• Observing patients for changes in condition, behavior, or needs and promptly reporting concerns to the supervising Registered Nurse
• Following each patient's individualized Plan of Care
• Accurately documenting care, services provided, and relevant observations
• Completing required visit documentation
• Following infection-control, patient-safety, and bloodborne-pathogen procedures
• Maintaining patient privacy and confidentiality
• Communicating effectively with patients, families, nurses, supervisors, and other members of the care team
• Participating in required training and continuing education

HHA / CNA Qualifications

Candidates must:

• Be at least 18 years of age
• Meet applicable Indiana requirements for the position and services being provided
• Maintain required certification and/or registry status, as applicable

• Be dependable and committed to accepted patient schedules
• Complete applicable Elite Home Healthcare employment, screening, and compliance requirements before providing patient care

Already a CNA?

Your CNA experience can translate well to home health.

Instead of caring for an entire floor or unit, home health provides the opportunity to focus on one patient at a time and provide individualized care in the home.

New to Healthcare?

You don't necessarily need previous HHA experience to start exploring a career in home health.

Qualified candidates may be eligible for Home Health Aide training through Elite Home Healthcare. We'll help eligible candidates understand the training and competency requirements needed to begin providing HHA services.

Work Environment & Physical Requirements

Care is primarily provided in patients' homes.

Employees may encounter communicable diseases, bloodborne pathogens, and other potentially infectious or hazardous materials and are required to follow applicable infection-control and safety procedures.

The position requires the physical ability to perform assigned patient-care responsibilities, including occasional lifting, pushing, or pulling of up to 50 pounds and safely assisting patients according to their Plan of Care.
