Pros
I am unable to provide any pros at this time since I have not had any assignments since being offered the job over 2 months ago.
Cons
Low pay to start, you can increase your pay by approximately $1- $2 per hour but only after attending a two day course to get your certification as a Personal Care Attendant which is of course, unpaid and requires you to miss two full days of work if you have a full time position or to sacrifice an entire weekend if you are unable to attend the training during the week. Limited work opportunities available as a homemaker/companion unless you are able to work during the day or are available every weekend. Ultimately you become forced in a sense to take the certification class just to get some work as the majority of their needs are for PCA services.
