Job Description:
An In Home Care Aide (IHCA) provides essential personal care services as part of a client’s established care plan. These services include:
- Assisting clients with personal hygiene (bathing, dressing, grooming, etc.)
- Helping with toileting and incontinence care
- Supporting mobility, including transferring from the bed to a chair or other locations
- Preparing meals for those who cannot cook for themselves

- Doing laundry
- Sweeping and vacuuming
- Dusting
- Making beds
- Preparing meals
- Grocery shopping
- Running errands as needed
Most importantly, IHCAs/CNAs provide companionship and emotional support, which are crucial for helping clients maintain their dignity and sense of self-worth. For families who cannot be there for their loved ones daily, IHCA/CNAs offer much-needed peace of mind by:
