Take classes that bring you a higher level of expertise in subject matters like nutrition, dementia care and fall prevention. When you can demonstrate that you invest in your career, and can talk about the subject matter with confidence and clarity, you will demonstrate an objective value people will be willing to pay for.

Transition to the office

If you are looking for more stability, a steady salary and a clear growth trajectory for your career; look into the operational side of the home health care industry. There are opportunities to start in an entry level role, such as a receptionist, and grow into a larger management role.

Home Health Business

If you have a taste for business, use your experience in the field to move into sales, business development and recruiting. While the salaries in these roles may not be as high as on the operations side, they often come with much higher potential upside in the form of bonuses. There are some basic sales and communication skills you might want to improve on and there is plenty of demand if you want to give it a try.
