Assisting Hands Richmond is looking for dedicated caregivers for our clients. Cases available in Mechanicsville, Richmond, Chesterfield areas. If you are interested in making a job change, then read this:

1. Why you might love this job

Caregiving is the job for you if you want to make a real difference in people's lives during difficult times. You'll build relationships with your clients and their families as you work in their homes. Over time, you'll learn what clients you work best with, where you prefer to work (home vs facility), and your work hours. As you share them with our team in the office, we'll match you with shifts that best match your preferences.

2.

Why you might hate this job

You will be responsible for the health, safety and happiness of your client, which is a big deal. There will be days when your client(s) isn't feeling good or happy. We (in the office) get stressed out too, and may not be able to explain everything, every time. You'll need to work both independently and with other team members (like the Executive Administrator/Shift Scheduler), which may be frustrating at times.

3.

What a regular day looks like

Depending on your client's specific health condition, you can expect to bathe, feed and dress them every time you visit. You'll learn your client's preferences and quirks and possibly know them better than their own family members. For some clients, your day might include taking them on activities and driving them to doctor's appointments, going grocery shopping or running errands. As a part of your shift, we require that you document all ADLs and any significant changes happening with your client's health and life situation.

Occasionally, you may be asked to work in a senior care community where you will interact with staff from the facility.

4. What we need in order to interview you

Because of the clients we serve, we require either a PCA certificate or a CNA certificate (state license not required) and some experience as a caregiver. You will also need to have a current TB test of Chest X-ray that states no active disease. You will also need to provide us with 2 references from former managers, teachers, or your Pastor.

Please have these handy so we can spend more time getting to know you, and less time chasing down documents.

5. What would make you stand out to our team

We hired a variety of caregivers who are all motivated by the desire to take care of our seniors. Prepared caregivers have their documents, references, and schedules ready to go. We value your time and ours and want to make sure you get an answer from us as soon as possible. We look forward to learning more about you and possibly welcoming you to the team!

Compensation:
Up to $18.00 an hour with bonus. Weekend rates are higher.
