-- Freedom Home Care, LLC is raising its short-shift pay rates and launching a caregiver hiring push across Mankato and Owatonna, Minnesota.

The company reports a record week of five new client intakes, a pace that reflects growing need for in-home senior care across southern Minnesota. That surge is driving both the pay increase and the accompanying recruitment campaign, as Freedom Home Care works to keep staffing aligned with client needs.
Freedom Home Care serves Mankato, Owatonna, and surrounding communities across Blue Earth, Steele, Rice, and Nicollet counties. Because meeting local seniors' desire to age in place safely requires a steady pipeline of caregivers, the hiring push aims to close that gap before demand outpaces capacity.
The new short-shift structure rewards caregivers who take on high-demand 2-hour visits, compensating for the flexibility, travel time, and dedication those shorter assignments require. The company positions these rates as recognition for caregivers filling gaps in client schedules.
Alongside the pay increase, Freedom Home Care is rolling out a 30-day caregiver referral initiative. Anyone who refers a candidate who is successfully hired within the campaign window receives a $300 cash bonus plus a pair of Minnesota Vikings tickets, an incentive meant to encourage current staff and community members to spread the word quickly.
