  • Assist with light housekeeping, laundry, linen changes, and maintaining an organized living environment related to the client's care.
  • Accompany the client to appointments, activities, errands, or other outings when required.
  • Follow established care plans, routines, safety procedures, and family instructions.
  • Maintain confidentiality and respect the client's privacy and dignity at all times.
  • Communicate professionally and consistently with family members and other members of the care team.

  • Experience assisting with activities of daily living, personal care, mobility, meals, and companionship.
  • Ability to recognize and appropriately report changes in the client's condition or behavior.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Dependable, trustworthy, and able to maintain professional boundaries.
  • Ability to work independently while following an established care plan.

  • 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.
