How Will The New Tariffs Impact Home Healthcare Caregivers?

With new tariffs now in effect, economists are predicting that short-term financial pain will add close to 2% to the Consumer Price Index and cost the average household (earning roughly between $30k-$60k a year) around 4% of their disposable income

Unlike many other industries, much of the Home Healthcare ‘product’ revolves around a time-intensive, one-on-one client experience, directly impacting company revenue (i.e. the better the end-user experience, the better the revenue) and making the need for positive patient interactions non-negotiable

So, how do Home Healthcare employers help their caregivers buffer the emotional stress associated with the forecasted 4% reduction of disposable income and reduce carry-over stress into their employees’ shift performances?

How Rellevate Can Help

Pay Any-Day (a form of Earned Wage Access) is one of the fastest growing employee benefits today and can help employees adjust both emotionally and practically to daily financial stress
