A Caregiver or Personal Care Aide provides non-medical care for adults, including elderly and disabled people, typically in their own homes. Assists clients with daily tasks including bathing, medication reminders, and light housekeeping; may also provide transportation for appointments and errands. These roles do not always require formal certification.
$14-$16 an hour as a 1099 contractor is not $14-$16 an hour. Contractors pay both halves of Social Security and Medicare, carry no workers' comp if they're injured on the job, and earn no overtime no matter how many hours they work. Every care pro here is a W-2 employee. Same rate on paper — very different paycheck.
