What housekeeping help costs in Center Point
At the Alabama median aide wage of $13.39 an hour, 20 hours of help a week comes to about $1,160 a month in wages, which is 25% of the $4,662 monthly median income of Center Point households headed by someone 65 or older. Private rates are agreed directly with the caregiver, so yours may be higher or lower. Alabama has no state minimum wage law, so the federal minimum of $7.25 an hour applies to employers covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (U.S. Department of Labor).
Hiring directly, you agree the rate with the caregiver and usually become the household employer (U.S. Department of Labor rules). Some families qualify for programs that pay for care at home; see Medicaid programs for family caregivers: who can be paid, and the rules in 12 states.
What to know before hiring a caregiver for housekeeping
Housekeeping help is non-medical and often comes alongside companionship or meal help. Heavy cleaning, deep cleaning, moving furniture and yard work are usually separate jobs, so say in your posting exactly what you need.
Questions worth asking: Which household tasks will you do, and which not? Do you bring your own supplies? Can you combine housekeeping with company or meals? More in our senior housekeeping guide.
