  • Great communication skills and a team-player mindset
  • Valid NYS driver's license for two years and an acceptable driving record.
  • Comfort with basic tech tools for documentation.

Additional Requirements :

  • Ability to safely lift and assist up to 70 lbs, to support individuals' mobility, personal care, transfers, and emergency needs with care and dignity.
  • Join in on moderate physical activities - think walks in the park or dance parties in the living room!

CMCS Offers:

  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • 403 (b) Retirement Plan
  • Generous Paid Time Off
  • Flexible Work Schedules
Ready to Join a Team That Makes a Difference?
