Home Health Aide Jobs in Follansbee, WV

A Home Health Aide (HHA) plays a pivotal role in the nursing industry by providing personal care to patients who require assistance with daily tasks within their homes. HHAs often work with the elderly, the chronically ill, and those recovering from injury or surgery who may be unable to care for themselves. They assist with activities such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication management and sometimes, transportation to medical appointments. They also monitor patients' vital signs, illness symptoms, and physical and emotional well-being, providing a critical link between the patient and the healthcare team.

Key skills that a Home Health Aide should possess include compassion, patience, good communication and interpersonal skills, physical stamina, and a strong sense of responsibility. Additionally, they must be trained in basic emergency response and understanding of safety and sanitation procedures. Certification requirements may differ by location, but most HHAs should have a high school diploma, complete a state approved training program and pass a competency examination. Prior to becoming a Home Health Aide, one might have held positions such as a personal care aide, nursing assistant, or a caregiver, roles that involve direct care provision and allow for the accumulation of relevant experience.
