As a caregiver in the facility right? That’s $4 an hour more than minimum wage & what IHSS pays home caregivers. Even in Sacramento, I’d say it’s barely a livable wage at that but.....these types of jobs don’t pay much here :(
I would never want to put anyone off this career path, because heaven knows it is vital work and anyone who is drawn to it as a vocation should be supported and encouraged. But that paper includes a lot of home truths that policy makers, regulators and legislators need to take on board. They'll only do that if voters start growling, mind.

I turned to Google to see what pay scales are like in the area (you could try that?) and while I was searching came across this link:
