Caregiver - 4 Ways to Start - Hiring Now
About The Position
You go to people's homes and help them with daily life. Mostly older adults. Baths, getting dressed, meals, light cleaning, errands, companionship. This is physical work — you help people move around and you're on your feet most of the day. If you need help doing these tasks, tell us. We can talk about what might work. You do NOT give medicine or do medical tasks. That's for nurses. During your phone interview, you tell us your limits: pets, smoking, travel distance, days and times. We only assign clients that fit what YOU said. Period. The tradeoff: The more open you are, the faster you start. The more strict, the longer you wait. We might have 5 clients today. But if none match your limits, for you there are zero. You control this timeline. Three situations that could happen: - Open to most things → Could start with 20-40 hours right away - Strict limits → May wait 1-2 weeks for a matching client - Open but no matches today → You're first in line for the next one Your first 2 weeks, we gauge reliability with fill-in shifts. But if permanent clients match you right away, we assign them right away. After that, you have your regular clients — same people every week. Most caregivers have 2-4 regulars. Want more hours? Pick up extra fill-ins anytime.
