Do you thrive on providing outstanding care and companionship to your clients? Are you comfortable with a non-routine, varied schedule with numerous clients each week? Do you enjoy teaching others how to provide outstanding care? Touching Hearts at Home is offering an opportunity to be a key part of our support team as a Lead Caregiver. The Lead Caregiver provides crucial support to ensure our clients have the care they need if their regularly scheduled caregiver is sick or unavailable, and also ensures new clients are able to get care started without delay. In addition to providing care to clients, the Lead Caregiver assists with on-the-job training and peer mentoring and development of new members of our care team.
The Lead Caregiver must be available for assignments any time within a 13 hour shift, either days or nights, and must be available to work every other weekend with two days off every week. Travel up to 45 minutes from our office in Kettering is required, so a valid driver's license, vehicle, and car insurance is a must.
Lead Caregivers are guaranteed pay for 40 hours per week minimum even if they are not placed in assignments for 40 hours. Lead Caregivers receive premium pay in a range from $18/hr up to $20/hr, plus $3/hr additional on weekends.
We are a close knit team at Touching Hearts at Home, and we rely on each other to ensure our clients receive the highest quality home care possible. We hire only committed, professional individuals who love working with older adults and seniors. We do what we do because we want to make a positive impact on the lives of our clients and their families. We expect this same level of passion from every team member and offer premium pay for top performing team members. Our Lead Caregiver receives competitive pay, paid time off, health insurance, a retirement savings plan, daily access to pay, ongoing training, yearly bonuses, and a support team that values you and treats you with respect!
