Caregiver Personal Care (IMMEDIATE HIRE)

Specialized Caregiver Service Description

The Specialized Caregiver provides advanced non-medical personal care and support for clients with complex physical or cognitive conditions requiring a higher level of experience, observation, and compassionate care. These caregivers are selected based on their experience, additional training, and ability to care for clients with specialized needs while promoting safety, dignity, comfort, and independence.

Specialized Caregivers perform all Companion Care and Personal Care Assistant (PCA) services, while providing additional support for clients with chronic illnesses, advanced dementia, hospice support, Parkinson's disease, stroke recovery, cancer, and other high-acuity conditions.
