        So true, I have been a CNA for over 30 years and i still get jobs offering me $9.00 per hour. I made more 20 years ago. Its a sad situation.

        Home Health Aids in Indiana are paid $8.00-$10.50 an hour & majority are only Part-time employees w/o benefits.

        Very believable. Everyone in nursing home is over worked and under paid. CNA do double shifts and still can make ends meet. I'm a nurse

        Not just home health aides. As a nurse I depend on my aides. They are everything. They should be paid more. #loveandrespectaides

        These angels take care of our loved ones and deserve a proper wage, and benefits. Many only work part time and get no benefits. Increase pay

        Really? Have you met a home health aide before? This is accurate, not fake. Take your head out of Trump's rear, my fellow statesman.
