Ask anyone who hires Caregivers to describe the most challenging part of their job. Chances are, “caregiver retention” tops the list for most. In fact, the 2016 Private Duty Benchmarking Study found that almost 70% of Home Care Providers cite ‘caregiver shortages’ as the #1 threat to their business.
Why is this number so high? Many reasons, large and small, go into a Caregiver’s decision to leave a job. Here’s what Caregivers tell us:
“I needed more money.”
“Another agency offered me more hours.”
“I didn’t feel like part of the team.”
“There were no opportunities for growth.”
