Job Description

Are you a nursing, pre-med, OT, PT, healthcare, or other future healthcare professional looking for hands-on experience?

Always Best Care Senior Services Charleston is hiring caregivers!

• Work part-time around classes, clinicals, and your school schedule
• Make a meaningful difference in someone's day

No previous caregiving experience? That's okay! We provide paid training and ongoing support to help you feel confident in your role.

What You’ll Be Doing:

Medication reminders
Assistance with mobility and walking
Personal care and hygiene support
Light housekeeping and meal preparation
Running errands or grocery shopping
Providing companionship and conversation
Observing and reporting changes in condition

What We’re Looking For:

We provide training, but ideal candidates are:

Compassionate, patient, and dependable
Interested in healthcare or human services
Strong communicators with good time-management skills
Physically able to assist clients safely
High school graduates (or GED equivalent)
Dependable with reliable transportation (required)
Comfortable around pets

Why Students Love This Opportunity:

$16-$18/hour, paid weekly
Flexible scheduling around classes
Hands-on experience with seniors in dementia care
One-on-one patient interaction
Build communication, compassion and caregiving skills
Paid training

Whether you're preparing for nursing school, already in a healthcare program, or exploring a career in patient care, this is a great way to gain experience.
