About this job

ENHANCE SENIORS' LIVES AS A SHORT-SHIFT CAREGIVER (AM AND PM SHIFTS)
 
WELCOME
Looking for a job that nurtures the soul? Every day, our CAREGivers enhance the lives of our elderly clients. Many of our clients just need an hour or two of help in the morning or the evening. If these types of short shifts fit into your schedule, and you are a natural with seniors, we'd love to meet you!
 
You may have discovered your knack for seniors by caring for an aging family member, or you may have cared for seniors professionally. Either way, we admire you and believe you have a special gift! Not everyone is great at providing that loving care to seniors and relating with them the way you can.  
 
We are looking for applicants with practical caregiving experience, but we don't require medical certifications or extensive health care experience. We provide all the training and support you'll need to make a meaningful difference for local seniors and their families.
 
 
 
WHAT OUR CAREGIVERS SAY ABOUT US
"I came to work for Home Instead to learn, but the reason why I have stayed for almost 8 years now is for the respect...the respect I have for my clients and the respect I feel from the owner and the office staff. It's amazing to work for a company where the people know my heart, where I am respected as an individual, and where I can feel part of a team. For me, this work is not just about wages, and I also don't feel that the company is overly focused on money. Instead, the focus is on supporting the CAREGivers and the clients we serve. To me, it's all about the seniors. I love knowing their routines, talking to them about what they are interested in, and making a real difference in their lives. We help them to stay at home longer and to keep feeling independent and respected as they age."
