6d•$22 - $26•Hybrid

About The Position

myPlace Health is built around a simple but powerful belief: older adults deserve the support they need to live safely, independently, and with dignity in their own communities. As a PACE (Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly) organization backed by SCAN Group, myPlace Health brings together customized medical care, social activities, and daily support for participants and their families – all under one roof. Our centers are more than healthcare facilities. They are vibrant community hubs where participants are known by name, valued, and supported as whole people. Behind that experience is a dedicated, interdisciplinary team working together to coordinate care, remove barriers, and improve quality of life for some of the most medically and socially complex populations. For employees, myPlace Health offers the opportunity to do deeply meaningful work in a highly collaborative setting. Team members are encouraged to contribute innovative ideas, and grow alongside a mission that prioritizes compassion, respect, and impact. The result is a culture where people feel connected—to their colleagues, their participants, and the communities they serve. At myPlace Health, work is more than a job. It’s a shared commitment to honoring what matters most. Are you driven by purpose and ready to make a real difference in the lives of vulnerable seniors in your community? This is your opportunity to become a valued part of a mission-focused team, providing compassionate care to frail older adults. In this role, you will build meaningful connections with participants and their families, offering support with warmth, respect, and professionalism. You’ll provide personal care tailored to each participant’s treatment plan, work closely with the Home Care Coordinator to monitor and respond to changes in participants' conditions, and engage in social activities that bring joy and companionship. If you are ready to provide exceptional care while fostering a positive and uplifting environment, we’d love for you to join us!
