• Prepare meals according to the client’s dietary needs and preferences and assist with eating when necessary.
• Monitor the client’s health and well-being, recognize changes in condition, and report concerns appropriately.
• Maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for the client.
• Document services provided, activities completed, and any relevant changes in the client’s condition.
• Communicate effectively with the client, family members, and care team while maintaining confidentiality and HIPAA requirements.

• Patient, dependable, respectful, and able to maintain appropriate professional boundaries.
• Ability to recognize changes in a client’s condition and communicate concerns appropriately.
• Ability to safely assist with transfers and physical care, including use of a Hoyer lift when applicable.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for more than someone who can complete a checklist of care tasks. We want someone who can connect with the client, have fun, encourage new experiences, and bring positive energy into the home.

If you enjoy anime, discovering new things, staying active, and creating meaningful connections with the people you care for, this may be the right opportunity for you!

Join our team and help provide care that supports not only the client’s daily needs, but also their personality, interests, independence, and quality of life.
