Caregiver / CNA - Join our Supportive & Welcoming Team! (Assisted Living FT/PT)

ABOUT US & THE ROLE
Atlas Living is a small, owner-operated residential care home in San Clemente serving six residents. Our goal is to provide high-quality, consistent care in a calm, supportive home environment where residents feel safe, respected, and well cared for.

We take pride in running a well-organized home that emphasizes dignity, attentiveness, and genuine human connection. The right team member is someone who is dependable, observant, and naturally caring—someone who notices when a resident needs extra support, takes the time to listen, and treats each resident with patience and respect.

This role is a good fit for someone who values doing things the right way, understands the responsibility that comes with caregiving, and wants to work in a home where thoughtful care, clear expectations, and teamwork matter.
