Caregiver Jobs & Careers at Right at Home-South Hills of Pittsburgh and Oakmont, PA

Right at Home is a home care agency with two locations in the Pittsburgh area: the South Hills/Washington County and Oakmont, PA. When they started the business 7 years ago, they learned that the average level of caregiver satisfaction in the in-home care business was only 6.9 on a scale of 10.  This single statistic was all that was needed to know about why it was difficult to recruit and retain excellent caregivers. Determined to change that statistic, Right at Home set about a very careful plan to increase the support and improve the environment that caregivers would work in. The theory was that if they hired the right people with a caring soul and supported them beyond any previous experience they have had in the business, their self-satisfaction and satisfaction with their employer would increase dramatically and, in the process, the quality of care to the client would go up proportionately.  For the last 7 years, Right at Home’s caregiver satisfaction level has never gone below a 9.5 earning them the national caregiver satisfaction award. However, their biggest reward is knowing that our clients are receiving top-notch care from carefully selected caregivers through the support they need to do an exceptional job.
