Lead Caregiver

Pay and Benefits: We believe that our Personal Care Aides (PCA) are the heart of our business. Without you, we couldn't build meaningful relationships with our clients, put a smile on their face or be the highlight of their day. It is hard to put a price on helping others but we know how important you are and value the impact you would make day in and day out for our clients. In taking this position, you would receive:

• Competitive pay
• Weekend shift differential
• Flexible schedules (Shifts can be arranged to fit your schedule)
• Weekly pay
• Mobile clock in/out
• Ongoing PAID training and development
• 24/7 Support
• Paid travel time in between clients and paid mileage
• Make a difference, develop meaningful relationships and meet new people

In this role, we stand prepared to equip you with the right personal protective equipment (PPE) and are ready to assist as you care for our vulnerable population of seniors and adults with disabilities.

What You'll Do and Who You Are: The Lead Caregiver has a unique role with our team. If you enjoy doing something different every day and meeting new people, then this position is for you! Lead Caregivers assist with all new care starts. This means your schedule will be different week to week. You'll have the opportunity to cross-train with a variety of clients and use different skill sets. The ideal Lead Caregiver is compassionate, honest, professional, likeable, flexible, and can get along and verbally communicate with people at all levels. We have a great work culture at Right at Home and look for people with a similar mindset:

You're the honest, energetic and approachable type, and are able to get along and with all types of people. You listen well, have great decision making skills and are passionate about your customer focus. You're never short of a smile and take real pride in your work by being resourceful, accountable, and adaptable and you cope well under pressure, take initiative and thrive on a challenge. Integrity is one of your core values as you do not ethically cut corners. You make a great first impression as you are professional and kind in your demeanor and approach.

You don't mind getting a little dirty this could include (but is not limited to) assisting the patient with activities of daily living such as providing assistance with personal hygiene (toileting, bathing, care of mouth, skin and hair), ambulation, eating, dressing, shaving, light housekeeping, and other household chores.

You don't have to be a gourmet chef but you can prepare a good meal and work your way around a kitchen.
