Available night and overnight shifts range from 4 to 12 hours. Shift lengths, start times, end times and available days vary according to each client’s care plan, personal preferences and scheduling needs. Some overnight assignments may continue into the early morning.

Zero-Tolerance Sleeping Policy

Applicants who do not have the required physical documents available will not be able to move forward in the interview and hiring process.

Digital screenshots, photographs or informal copies will not be accepted in place of required physical documents during formal verification.

For privacy and identity protection, applicants should not text or email photographs of their Social Security card, birth certificate or other sensitive identity documents. These documents must be presented through the secure verification process directed by Helping Hearts.
