ARE YOU READY TO LOVE WHERE YOU WORK AND WHAT YOU DO?

Impactful companies are built by extraordinary people - period. We know that when you love your work, our clients win, so we maximize your potential and workplace happiness from day one with:

• Monday to Friday, DAYS!
• Competitive pay plus merit increases
• Annual cost-of-living adjustments
• Health & dental benefits / Employee and family assistance program (available on your very first day!)
• 3 weeks vacation increasing with tenure, plus personal leave time (available immediately)

• The opportunity to work in a collaborative, client-focused and fun-loving culture rooted in caring (others just say it - we live it)

Careica Health is a privately owned and operated company that does healthcare differently. “Care” is intentionally in our name and is at the forefront of how we treat our clients, each other and the important work we do. This is not a walk-in clinic, so you'll get to know your clients, developing lasting relationships and playing a key role in their entire health journey.

We thrive on offering comprehensive care to clients who struggle with their sleep. You’ll empower them to reduce or eliminate symptoms of Sleep Apnea through customized treatment plans and ongoing care. Our purpose is"Helping people live their best lives"and we are intrinsically fulfilled when we improve the health and well-being of our clients.

TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE ROLE:

Each morning you’ll wake up refreshed, enjoying an exceptional work-life balance, which is rare in healthcare. Finally, no more shift work - you can have a life again!

You’ll arrive to the clinic with a coffee in hand, ready to collaborate with a team who shares your passion to have fun at work while making a real difference in the lives of our clients. You’ll review your schedule for the day, analysing data and strategizing treatment plans – bouncing ideas off our supportive clinical and administrative teams throughout Western Canada.

Your client arrives, and with a warm smile and compassion, you alleviate their apprehension by educating and equipping them with the tools needed for successful therapy. Following this, you’ll effortlessly chart interactions in our custom designed EMR which centralizes information so you can assist clients with ease.

Here’s a little more detail:

• Guiding clients through their sleep study results, diagnosis and treatment recommendations made by the interpreting specialist
• Assessing CPAP machine and mask needs and providing options for purchase
• Being there for clients when they first experience the sensation of Positive Airway Pressure (PAP)
• Optimizing PAP (most daily appointments revolve around this)
• Setting up trial therapy and transitioning to long-term therapy while providing ongoing support
• Administration including phone calls, charting and sending client updates to referring physicians
• Learning more about insomnia so you can identify clients who would benefit from our complementary CBTi program

WHAT QUALIFICATIONS DO I NEED FOR THIS ROLE?

• Registered Respiratory Therapist, Registered Nurse or Licensed Practical Nurse
• Experience in the sleep field preferred (however, extensive training will be provided)
