Part-Time In-Home Caregiver / Personal Care Assistant

We are looking for a kind, dependable, and attentive caregiver to provide one-on-one care for an adult woman in her private home in Lake Forest.

She requires full assistance with her daily care and is unable to independently walk, transfer, reposition herself, or complete activities of daily living. A Hoyer lift is used for transfers between her bed, chair, and other appropriate areas.

This is a hands-on caregiving position, but we are equally looking for someone who will treat her with patience, dignity, warmth, and genuine care. Comfort, companionship, and quality of life are very important to our family.

Responsibilities include

• Helping with repositioning and maintaining her comfort throughout the day
• Following her established daily care routine and family instructions
• Assisting with scheduled supplements and other routine care needs as directed
• Providing companionship and meaningful interaction
• Putting on movies, television, music, and other entertainment she enjoys
• Paying attention to her comfort and general well-being throughout the shift
• Keeping her immediate care and living areas clean, sanitary, and organized
• Communicating with the family about her day and any changes or concerns
• Assisting with other reasonable tasks related to her daily care and comfort

We are looking for someone who is

• Compassionate, patient, gentle, and attentive
• Dependable and punctual
• Comfortable providing hands-on and intimate personal care
• Comfortable caring for someone who is fully dependent on others for daily needs
• Physically able to assist with repositioning and personal care
• Experienced with a Hoyer lift or willing to be trained in its safe use
• Able to follow instructions and an established routine consistently
• Observant and comfortable communicating any changes or concerns to the family
• Respectful of her dignity, privacy, and the family's home
• Calm, trustworthy, and comfortable working independently

Previous caregiving, personal care assistant, CNA, HHA, nursing assistant, disability-care, or similar experience is preferred.

CPR and First Aid certification are a plus.

Schedule

This is a part-time position with varying hours. Days and hours may vary depending on the family's caregiving needs, so some flexibility is appreciated. Specific availability and scheduling will be discussed during the interview process.

Compensation

$18–$19 per hour, depending on experience.

Location

Private residence in Lake Forest, CA 92630. The exact home address will be provided to selected candidates later in the interview/hiring process for privacy and safety.

About the Role

We are hoping to find someone who can become a dependable part of her care team. She relies on the people around her not only for her physical care, but also for her comfort and quality of life. We value someone who will interact with her, keep her comfortable and entertained, notice the little things, and care for her with patience and respect.
