Is there any recourse given all these abuses given the person needs the job?

Not really. That is just how it is these days. To be frank your friend needs to increase his or her skill level....in other words become an RN. Even RNs can have it tough though depending on who they work for but it is much better than what home health care givers make.

If they were CALLED into work by that job site and then told they were not needed they should have least received two hours of normal pay IF they are being paid to be on call...that is how my hospital does it for techs. But the people your friend works for do not sound like they would do that.

I mean it sounds like a patient called his agency requesting a care giver but then the patient changed his mind. The agency should at least be paying for the time it took him to drive there.
