FAQs for finding home health aides near you in Portland, ME

If you’re planning to hire a home health aide near you in Portland, ME, it’s important to understand that there is no one standard role that a home health aide takes on. A home health aide isn’t a nurse, but can help with health related tasks like ensuring their clients take their medicine on time, transporting them to doctors appointments, picking up prescriptions, and making sure they are well fed and bathed.

When it’s time to hire a home health aide near you in Portland, ME, it’s a good idea to create a list of duties your family members need help with. You can review different profiles on Care.com to learn more about common health aide duties such as bathing, feeding, and cleaning up after their clients.

To find home health aides near you in Portland, ME, you can create an account with Care.com and then you can filter and sort local home health aides by distance from Portland, ME. Then you can review your options for home health aides by reading about their experience and the home health aide duties they will take on.

The average rate for hiring home health aides near you in Portland, ME on Care.com as of November, 2025 is $25.50 per hour. It’s worth noting that the rate each individual home health aide charges depends on the level of care required, the provider's certifications, and their years of experience.

To help you start your research, all home health aides on Care.com are asked to complete an annual background check called a CareCheck (the providers who complete this background check have a badge on their profile displaying the date it was run). However, this is just a jumping off point. We strongly recommend that you take additional steps for hiring a home health aid safely, which include interviewing candidates, calling their professional references, and running your own background check.
