HOW WE MATCH YOU WITH CLIENTS
You tell us your limits during your phone interview: pets smoking travel distance days and times. We only send you to clients that fit what YOU told us. Period.

We might have 5 clients available today. If none match your limits for you there are zero. This is your timeline to control.
What could happen:
- Open to most things Could start with 20-40 hours right away
- Strict limits May wait 1-2 weeks for a matching client
- Open but no matches today Youre first in line for the next one
First 2 weeks we gauge reliability with fill-in shifts. But if permanent clients match you right away we assign them right away.
After that you have your regular clients same people every week. Most Home Health Aides have 2-4 regulars. Want more hours Pick up extra fill-ins anytime.
