Job Title: Caregiver

Company: Home Instead Senior Care

Location: Farmington Hills, MI

Pay: $15 per hour

AI Pay Analysis: As of October 2023, an hourly rate of $15 for a caregiver in Farmington Hills, MI, is generally considered below the industry standard. While caregiver wages can vary based on experience, certifications, and specific job duties, rates typically range from $16 to $25 per hour in many regions across the U.S., with urban areas often on the higher end of that scale. In Michigan, the demand for caregivers has increased, leading to upward pressure on wages, especially given the rising cost of living and minimum wage increases. Therefore, while $15 may attract applicants, it may not retain experienced professionals or align well with competitive hiring practices in the area.
