Job Description

Are you ready to get back to the heart of caregiving? Do you remember why you first became a caregiver? Chances are, you chose this field to make a real difference in people's lives. But if you are currently working in a facility, hospital, or long-term care setting, you might be feeling stretched entirely too thin. With high resident-to-staff ratios, constant call bells, and back-to-back tasks, it can feel impossible to provide the dignified, unhurried care you know older adults truly deserve. If you are feeling burned out by the pace of institutional care and tired of rushing from room to room, we want to offer you a different path. We are looking for experienced caregivers, LNAs, and CNAs who want to step off the floor and step into a calmer, more meaningful environment: providing dedicated, one-on-one care in the comfort of a client's home. The Role: As a Private Duty Caregiver, you will provide personalized, one-on-one support to older adults. This role allows you to step away from the chaos of managing multiple residents at once and focus entirely on the safety, comfort, and well-being of a single client. You will utilize your clinical knowledge and caregiving skills to assist with daily living, while also having the time to build a genuine relationship, share stories, and truly help your client thrive at home. Why In-Home Care Feels Different: * One Client at a Time: Focus 100% of your attention on the person in front of you. * Unhurried, Dignified Care: Allow your client to move at their own pace without the pressure of a facility schedule. * More Autonomy, Less Chaos: Enjoy a quieter, more controlled work environment free from constant alarms and overhead pages. * A Supportive Culture: You are backed by a dedicated office and clinical team who respect your time and value your clinical observations. Key Responsibilities: * Provide compassionate assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), including bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting. * Maintain a safe home environment, support safe transfers/mobility, and assist with light housekeeping and meal preparation. * Utilize your observational skills to monitor for changes in the client’s physical or cognitive condition, promptly communicating concerns to the care team. * Provide meaningful companionship, emotional support, and engagement. * Accurately follow individualized care plans and complete daily shift documentation. What We Are Looking For: * Active LNA or CNA certification, or equivalent hands-on professional caregiving experience. * Experience in nursing homes, assisted living, hospitals, or rehab facilities is highly valued—we respect the skills you've built and want you to use them in a healthier environment! * Current CPR/First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain). * Valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and valid auto insurance. * A compassionate, dependable professional who wants to give thoughtful care, not just get through a shift. What We Offer: * Competitive Pay: $23 - $27 * Meaningful Work: The chance to rediscover why you entered healthcare. * Flexible Scheduling: Work-life balance with shifts that fit your life. * Benefits: PTO, Health Insurance, Next-Day Pay Ready for a change of pace? Apply today to take the next step in your caregiving career.
