A Typical Shift
Your Monday–Friday schedule runs 8:00am–4:30pm. You start by checking the day’s route details, confirming addresses and timing, and completing a quick vehicle readiness check before the first pickup. Between runs, you coordinate updates with nursing and administrative staff, manage any schedule adjustments, and complete required trip notes. You’ll keep a steady, calm pace during travel, helping residents feel at ease and informed about what’s next. Back at the facility, you reset for the next trip—organizing paperwork, preparing for afternoon appointments, and ensuring the vehicle is ready for the following day.
