A Question - What is the difference in # 11 AND # 21 ?  

I don’t see that either really have to be trained in “healthcare” needs and services plus a person that is trained in these healthcare needs usually makes a lot more than the stated per hour rate.  

Thanks for your answer.

11. Home health aide

• Median wage: $16.12 per hour
• 2025-2033 job outlook: 9 percent increase
• Find home health aide jobs

A recent AARP survey found that 75 percent of older adults want to stay in their homes as they age. The availability of home health aides is one factor that will shape whether that goal is possible. The work can be demanding, sometimes requiring physical labor, but many home health aides find the relationships with their clients make the job fulfilling.

21. Personal care aide

• Median wage: $16.12 per hour
• 2025-2033 job outlook: 9 percent increase
• Find personal care aide jobs

Both home health aides and personal care aides perform caregiving responsibilities, but personal care aides focus more on clients' nonmedical needs. For example, personal care aides often help with preparing meals, running errands or light housecleaning.

My very humble opinion is that it DEPENDS ON THE AREA.

For example, in my location in VIRGINIA, if you are NOT Medical = you are NOT going to find a "decent" job that pays well.

Another example, would be Washington DC. With the White House being there and alot of Corporate Offices (example AARP), probably an area to get a "decent" job based on EACH organization's NEEDS. I am NOT familiar with this area, so chances are I maybe wrong.

Good luck to ALL the people searching for jobs. Sometimes you MAY have to MOVE to obtain your DREAM JOB.

Take care,
