Home Helpers ranked among best places to work

Home Helpers is ranked as one of the best places to work for caregivers, companions, and nurse aids, as determined by the caregivers themselves.

Home Helpers is one of only 10 agencies selected in the recent myCNAjobs Caregiver Choice Awards program. Unlike other workplace-related awards, which require companies to self-nominate, the Caregiver Choice Awards rely solely on the input of caregivers across the nation, who anonymously provide feedback through a survey. The survey is distributed to thousands of professional caregivers working in homecare via myCNAjobs’ caregiver marketplace.

“The Choice Awards represent some of the most outstanding home care employers to work for,” says Brandi Kurtyka, CEO of Chicago-based myCNAjobs.

Since 1997, Home Helpers has been a leader in home care services. Home Helpers services more than 600 communities across the country. Home Helpers of Hinsdale serves people throughout eastern DuPage and western Cook counties.

“We are proud of our caregivers and the service they provide to our clients,” said Mike Doepke, co-owner of Home Helpers of Hinsdale. “In return for their compassionate care, we are proud to provide them with a great place to work.”

“We employ not just good, but exceptional caregivers who take care of their clients at a level families would expect of themselves,” says Cheryl Hammons, vice president of Franchise Services at Home Helpers. “Our professional caregivers must meet or exceed rigorous standards, and are given opportunities to improve their caregiving skills with ongoing training through Home Helpers University.”
