Caregiver pay in Corning: how much caregivers make
Public figures first, then what they mean for private work. Statistics describe employed aides across the North Valley-Northern Mountains Region of California nonmetropolitan area (includes Tehama County); private rates on CaregiverConnect are agreed between each caregiver and family and are not tracked by any agency.
| Measure | Hourly | Source and coverage |
|---|---|---|
| Home health and personal care aides, North Valley-Northern Mountains Region of California nonmetropolitan area (includes Tehama County) | $16.50 median ($17.00 mean) | BLS OEWS, May 2025; 5,000 jobs; concentration 1.73× national |
| IHSS provider wage, Tehama County | $18.40 | CDSS; effective July 1, 2026 |
| California minimum wage | $16.90 | effective January 1, 2026 |
| Nursing assistants, North Valley-Northern Mountains Region of California nonmetropolitan area (includes Tehama County) | $22.66 median | BLS OEWS, May 2025 (certified roles, for comparison) |
Who is the employer. A family that hires you directly is your employer under California's Domestic Worker Bill of Rights. The state minimum wage ($16.90 an hour from 1 January 2026; some cities set more, for example $17.75 in the City of San Diego) is the legal floor, and a personal attendant earns overtime at 1.5× after 9 hours in a day or 45 in a week. The main exceptions are IHSS recipients and an employer's own parent, spouse or child. Source: California DIR, Domestic Worker Bill of Rights FAQ.
About 2.9% of Corning's labor force was unemployed, on average, between August 2025 and August 2026, according to EDD estimates. That is below the Tehama County average of 6.1% and below California's 5.3%. The county figure is the better guide to the wider job market, and in either case paid care at home stays steady work. In a city where 24.3% of working residents are in service jobs and 14.4% in agriculture, becoming a provider through IHSS in Tehama County pays $18.40 an hour from July 1, 2026, for care a family member may already be giving. With no Corning wage ordinance in UC Berkeley's inventory, private families pay at least the state's $16.90. For May 2025, BLS reported a $16.50 median for aides and $22.66 for nursing assistants across the nonmetro area containing Tehama.
How to enroll as a provider in Tehama County, with the office phone lines and orientation steps, is in the IHSS Tehama County guide. IHSS wages for every county we cover, with effective dates, are in the IHSS pay by county guide.
How the public numbers relate to private rates, and what affects them, is covered in the caregiver pay guide.
