Job Description

Caring for Portland invites you to embark on a heartwarming journey as a Companion Caregiver, where you'll be a beacon of support for elderly adults in the comfort of their own homes. This role isn't just about tasks; it's about extending a hand of companionship and compassion to help seniors maintain their independence and dignity.

As an entry-level Caregiver with us, you'll be a vital part of our team, providing emotional support, caregiver assistance, and light housekeeping with the utmost professionalism and empathy. We take pride in delivering exceptional in-home care, tailored to each individual's unique needs.

At Caring for Portland, we value respect, transparency, compassion, and excellence. If you're ready to make a meaningful difference in the lives of aging adults and individuals with disabilities, join us in our mission to provide exceptional care and companionship.

If you’re driven by an inner purpose and have a heart for helping others, we want you on our team. As a Caregiver for our company, you can expect to be expertly matched to Clients to assist them through each changing season of life. Discover the joy and fulfillment of serving one Client at a time - developing a relationship, and caring for them holistically - rather than being burnt out and understaffed!
