Job description

myPlace Health is built around a simple but powerful belief: older adults deserve the support they need to live safely, independently, and with dignity in their own communities. As a PACE (Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly) organization backed by SCAN Group, myPlace Health brings together customized medical care, social activities, and daily support for participants and their families – all under one roof.

Our centers are more than healthcare facilities. They are vibrant community hubs where participants are known by name, valued, and supported as whole people. Behind that experience is a dedicated, interdisciplinary team working together to coordinate care, remove barriers, and improve quality of life for some of the most medically and socially complex populations.

For employees, myPlace Health offers the opportunity to do deeply meaningful work in a highly collaborative setting. Team members are encouraged to contribute innovative ideas, and grow alongside a mission that prioritizes compassion, respect, and impact. The result is a culture where people feel connected—to their colleagues, their participants, and the communities they serve.

At myPlace Health, work is more than a job. It’s a shared commitment to honoring what matters most.

Are you driven by purpose and ready to make a real difference in the lives of vulnerable seniors in your community? This is your opportunity to become a valued part of a mission-focused team, providing compassionate care to frail older adults.

In this role, you will build meaningful connections with participants and their families, offering support with warmth, respect, and professionalism. You’ll provide personal care tailored to each participant’s treatment plan, work closely with the Home Care Coordinator to monitor and respond to changes in participants’ conditions, and engage in social activities that bring joy and companionship.

If you are ready to provide exceptional care while fostering a positive and uplifting environment, we’d love for you to join us!

Responsibilities

• Provide hands-on care with warmth and dignity: Assist participants with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and safely transferring them with care.

• Help with everyday tasks: Support with Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs) like laundry, light housekeeping, grocery shopping, reminders for appointments, and medication schedules.

• Monitor and promote well-being: Measure and document vital signs, ensuring participants’ health is always our top priority.

• Encourage strength and independence: Assist with personalized home exercise programs, guided by the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) and thoughtfully designed to help participants thrive.

• Provide a helping hand with transportation: Help participants enter and exit their homes safely, offering support as a medical escort for appointments when needed.

• Be their advocate: Observe and report any changes in condition or behavior to the supervisor, ensuring participants receive the right care at the right time.

• Keep care seamless: Maintain accurate, up-to-date records, including daily logs and progress notes in the electronic medical record system.

• Foster connection and understanding: Communicate with participants, their families, colleagues, and partner agencies with clarity and compassion.

• Champion respect and privacy: Protect participant confidentiality and treat them with the dignity they deserve.

• Offer companionship and joy: Build meaningful connections by engaging in conversation, providing emotional support, and creating a positive, uplifting environment for every participant.

• We seek Rebels who are curious about AI and its power to transform how we operate and serve our members.

• Actively support the achievement of myPlace’s Vision and Goals.

• Other duties as assigned.

Qualifications and Experience

• A heart for service: Passionate about supporting high-risk seniors and older adults, ensuring they feel safe, respected, and valued.

• Experience working with older adults: Previous experience with the frail and elderly population is a plus.

• CPR and First Aid certification: If you don’t have these yet, no worries! We’ll provide training, and you’ll have 60 days from hire to complete it.

• CNA or HHA certification preferred: These credentials help, but if you don’t have them, we’re happy to assist you in obtaining the right training.

• Flexibility: Willingness to support the team by working at the PACE center when needed.

• Bilingual abilities: We welcome candidates who can communicate with participants in multiple languages!

• Valid CA driver’s license and reliable transportation: A clean driving record and auto insurance (as required by state law) will ensure you’re ready to assist with transportation needs.

• Relevant caregiving experience: Previous work as a personal care attendant, CNA, or in a similar caregiving role is highly valued.

• Training and registration support: If you haven’t completed a State-approved Nurse Aide, HHA, or Personal Care Assistant course, we’ll help you get started! Plus, we’ll guide you through the Home Care Registry process before your first day.
