What are the responsibilities and job description for the Part Time Personal Care Assistant (PCA/PSS) & Family Caregiver - Harpswell, ME 04079 position at Blue Haven Services?
Pay: Starting at $20.00 per hour
Schedule: Full-time (35 hrs/week) or Part-time — weekdays or weekends
Why Join Blue Haven Services?
At Blue Haven, we believe that providing care is more than a job—it's a way to help our Maine neighbors stay safely in the homes they love. We're hiring a caregiver for a client in Harpswell, about a 25-minute drive down Route 123 from Brunswick. If you live in Brunswick, Topsham, Bath, or Freeport, this is an easy commute—and it's the same drive every day, not a rotating route across the Midcoast.
Are you already caring for a family member? We specialize in helping family caregivers transition into professional, paid roles. Get the support and competitive pay you deserve while caring for your loved one.
The Role
As a PSS, you are the heartbeat of our service. You'll work one-on-one with our client in her home. She has been without consistent help, and what matters most to her is someone who shows up. Your day-to-day will include:
- Personal Care: Assisting with "Activities of Daily Living" (ADLs) like dressing, bathing, grooming, and mobility. This is the majority of the role.
- Home Support: Preparing meals, light housekeeping, and laundry.
- Errands: Grocery shopping and household supply runs.
- Connection: Providing companionship and a steady, familiar presence each morning.
No pets in the home.
The Schedule
We're filling this as either one full-time position or two part-time positions, whichever fits the right people:
- Full-time: 35 hours/week, about 5 hours a day, 7 days a week
- Part-time (weekdays): Monday–Friday, 25 hours/week
- Part-time (weekends): Saturday and Sunday, 10 hours/week
Every shift starts at 9:00 AM. Our client is a morning person and her routine is built around it. Apply even if you can only take part of the week—tell us which days work and we'll build around you.
What We're Looking For
- Heart First: A genuine desire to help others and a reliable, patient personality.
- Experience: PSS, PCA, CNA, HHA, or comparable hands-on caregiving experience.
- Communication: If something changes, we want to hear it from you first.
- Requirements: Must be 18 , able to pass a background check, and have reliable transportation and a valid driver's license.
The Blue Haven Advantage
- Competitive Pay: Starting at $20/hour, with room to grow based on experience and certification.
- One Client, One Routine: You'll build a real relationship instead of racing between homes.
- Maine Local: A small team that knows our communities and picks up the phone when you call.
- We Move Fast: We can usually meet within 24 hours of your first call.
