Caregiver NOC SHIFT 10 PM-6:30 AM

Fair Oaks Estates • Carmichael, CA

1d • $17 - $18 • Onsite

About The Position

Fair Oaks Estates is hiring a full-time overnight Caregiver, the NOC shift, in Carmichael. Nights are quieter, but they are not easy. You’ll be the one awake while our residents sleep: doing safety checks, turning and repositioning, answering call lights, helping people to the bathroom, and keeping someone who wakes up confused and frightened calm. With a memory care neighborhood, nighttime wandering and disorientation are a real and regular part of this shift. When something goes wrong at night, you’re the one who catches it first. This role suits a steady, observant, self-directed person comfortable working with less supervision. Medications are handled by Med Techs; your job is direct resident care.

Requirements

• 18 years or older
• Authorized to work in the United States
• Fingerprint clearance through Community Care Licensing, completed before your first day
• A health screening and TB test from a licensed physician, completed before your first day
• A valid First Aid card which must be kept current
• Scrubs on the floor, plus low-heeled, closed-toe, slip-resistant shoes
• Able to assist another caregiver in transferring residents weighing 100 to 250 pounds, daily, and to turn and reposition residents safely
• Comfortable providing hands-on personal care, including toileting and incontinence care
• Able to stay alert and attentive through a full overnight shift
• Sound judgment working independently
• Reliable transportation to Carmichael for a late-night start and early-morning end
• Available to work overnights on a four-nights-on, two-days-off rotation, which includes some weekends and holidays

Nice To Haves

• Previous overnight or night shift experience, in any field
• Previous caregiving experience, whether professional or caring for your own family
• High school diploma or GED
• Experience with dementia or Alzheimer’s care, especially nighttime wandering and sundowning
• Comfortable with electronic documentation

Responsibilities

• Take a full handoff from the evening shift, including who’s unsettled, who’s unwell, and what to watch for
• Perform safety checks and rounds throughout the night
• Turn and reposition residents on schedule to prevent pressure sores
• Answer call lights within minutes and assist with overnight toileting and incontinence care
• Change soiled linens and clothing discreetly
• Redirect and reassure memory care residents who wake disoriented, anxious, or trying to leave
• Monitor for and respond to falls, breathing changes, pain, and other changes in condition
• Alert the Med Tech or Care Managers and escalate per protocol when a resident needs more than caregiver support
• Report any change in a resident’s condition immediately: weight, mood, falls, skin tears, bruises, or not eating
• Monitor oxygen and the call system; complete incident reports as needed
• Keep exterior doors secure and the community safe through the night
• Handle overnight laundry and housekeeping during quiet stretches
• Prepare for the morning shift by setting out supplies and staging the day’s needs
• Document in Eldermark before the end of your shift and give a clear, complete handoff to the AM shift
• Escalate emergencies per protocol

Benefits

• Paid orientation and training
• A schedule you can plan a real life around
• Team support
• Health coverage for regular full-time employees
• Paid sick leave
• Paid vacation for regular full-time employees after one year of continuous employment
