What The Job Is

You support people with disabilities and mental health needs in living the life they choose. Day to day, that looks like helping someone get ready in the morning, cooking a meal together, driving to an appointment or a job, working through a hard moment when it comes, and writing down how the day went so the next person on shift knows.

It is real work. Some days are heavy. The people you support are not problems to be managed, and we do not talk about them that way; our whole approach is built on the idea that everyone deserves care without conditions attached.

Requirements

• You are 18 or older with a high school diploma or GED.
• You have a valid driver's license and can pass a background check.
• You can be relied on to turn up for your shift, because someone is counting on you being there.
• You are patient with people on their worst day.

No degree, no certification and no prior caregiving experience needed. We train you.

Shifts

We staff around the clock, so there is likely a schedule that fits yours - days, evenings, overnights, weekends, and weekend-only positions if you already have another job or you are studying. Tell us what works and we will tell you honestly what we have.
