Job description

Description

IN-HOME CAREGIVER

Do you enjoy building relationships and helping others thrive at home? Do you value serving those in need?

At AmanaCare, we provide faithful, personalized in-home assistance to seniors and disabled or recovering persons. We are seeking non-medical caregivers throughout Nebraska.

What we offer:

• Paid health insurance. We cover all caregivers working 25 hours a week or more with individual indemnity health insurance. We can also offer partial payment for additional health insurance coverages, and for plans for spouses, children, and family.
• Competitive pay: up to $19/hour. Our wages are matched to experience and qualification, and are up to $3.00 above the eastern Nebraska average and 20% higher than the national average.
• Immediate hours. We have current openings so you can start your first shift right away.
• Flexible scheduling. We schedule you with clients based on your availability, whether you are looking for five hours a week or forty.
• Weekly paychecks, directly deposited every Friday.
• Paid on-the-job training. All initial training and shadowing is paid. No medical certification or prior experience is required: we coach you through the specifics of caring for each client individually.
• Room for advancement. We want to give you the resources you need to develop as a caregiver and beyond. To this end, we offer advanced and specialty training through online and hands-on learning that will help propel your career with AmanaCare.
• Holiday pay. We pay time-and-a-half for any major holidays you provide care on.
• Employee referral bonus. Refer a qualified candidate and, as a "thank you," we'll offer you a $25 referral bonus once the employee has been with us for 30 days, another $200 when they’ve been with us for 90 days, and another $250 when they’ve been with us for 180 days—that’s up to $475 total.

This job is:

• A competitively paying job for those with experience in in-home or residential health care, or who have worked as a CNA, med aide, case worker, paraprofessional, registered behavior technician, or direct support professional.
• A good fit for someone entering the workforce, or someone who has been out of the workforce for the past 6 or more months.
• Ideal for college students, those with children, and older job seekers and retirees.

Core responsibilities include:

• One-on-one companionship
• Meal preparation
• Light housekeeping and laundry
• Medication reminders
• Bathing and dressing assistance
• Errands and transportation
• Transferring and mobility assistance
• Pet assistance

To apply you must:

• Be 19 or older.
• Have a valid driver's license and vehicle insurance.
• Have reliable transportation.
• Reside in the state of Nebraska.
