Then you’ll orient and train the ongoing Care Professionals who take over their care, so every transition is smooth. You’ll also be someone we count on to step in when clients need coverage.

  • 36–40 guaranteed paid hours per week
  • Day and overnight positions
  • Set workweek: Wednesday–Saturday or Sunday–Wednesday
  • Paid training: 3 days of orientation, including an on-the-job shadow shift

What You’ll Do

Start care for new clients:

  • Give new clients and their families a warm, professional first experience
  • Provide hands-on personal care, including bathing, dressing, toileting, transfers, and mobility help
  • Care for clients with a wide range of needs, including high-acuity and bedbound clients, within your training and scope

  • Adapt quickly to different homes, personalities, and schedules

  • Be a role model for Home Instead’s standards of professional, compassionate care

Cover open shifts:

  • Step in for emergency shifts when Care Professionals call out

  • Make a strong first impression and communicate well with clients, families, and the office
  • Are dependable, punctual, and flexible when assignments change
  • Enjoy mentoring others and can guide caregivers with patience and confidence

  • Willing to care for male and female clients, bedbound clients, and clients with higher-acuity needs
  • Comfortable providing personal care, including bathing, dressing, toileting, and mobility help
  • Comfortable working in homes where smoking occurs
  • Willing to orient, train, and support other Care Professionals
  • Able to communicate effectively in English to follow care plans, report on client needs, and train caregivers

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
