Honoring the Dignity of the Most Vulnerable and Their Caregivers

Those who are poor, elderly, and disabled are some of the most vulnerable in our society. Too often To Improve the Quality of Life for Society's Most VulnerableThose who are poor, elderly, and disabled are some of the most vulnerable in our society. Too often, this group is pushed aside into institutional care facilities, leading to debilitating loneliness and other health risks. We believe there’s a better way. Through care, love, and companionship, we can honor the dignity of each client. At Saint Joseph Home Health Care, we believe all people, especially the poor, deserve to be cared for with dignity. ‍ Furthermore, we recognize that caregiving is difficult work. As of 2023, the average wage of a home health aid in the United States is only $13 per hour. How can a person be expected to care for others when they cannot care for themselves? We believe that caregivers should be paid a wage that honors the impact of their work.
