Looking for a job where you actually go home feeling like you mattered today? This is that job.
At Right at Home, we help older adults stay in the homes they love - and YOU are the reason that's possible. You're the friendly face at the door on Monday morning. The reason breakfast is on the table, the laundry's folded, and someone had a real conversation today instead of sitting alone with the TV.
We're hiring RIGHT NOW. We'll train you. Bring the heart - we'll handle the rest.
========================================
WHY YOU'LL LOVE WORKING HERE
========================================
- See the difference you make. Same clients. Real relationships. Quality of life gets better week by week.
- Flexible schedules built around your life (2-week notice on changes).
- Paid training - all of it, including your initial certification.
- Weekly pay + Travel Pay between clients.
- A real team. Your Supervisor picks up the phone. Your Scheduler knows your name.
- Growth path - Supervisor, Scheduler, Recruiter. We promote from within.
- Real recognition - Winner of Hearts, Five Star Feedback, Caregiver Spotlight.
========================================
WHAT YOU'LL DO
========================================
- Light housekeeping - dishes, laundry, sheets, tidying up
- Meal prep - breakfast, lunch, dinner ready to go
- Grocery shopping and errands
- Companionship - coffee and conversation, a walk, a card game, a call to family
- Daily routines - dressing, getting around the house, getting to appointments
- Watching for changes and telling your Supervisor when something seems off
You're not a nurse - and you're not expected to be one. You're the person who notices Mrs. R didn't finish her breakfast three days in a row - and we take it from there.
========================================
WHO YOU ARE
========================================
- You LIKE older people - their stories, their pace, their humor. This is non-negotiable.
- You show up when you say you will.
- You notice the small stuff.
- You can lift up to 25 lbs comfortably.
- You have reliable transportation and a valid driver's license.
- You can pass an Illinois Healthcare Worker Background Check.
- You're at least 18.
NICE TO HAVE (not required - we'll train you):
- CNA, HHA, or prior caregiving experience
- Experience with dementia or memory care
========================================
YOUR FIRST 30 DAYS
========================================
1. Paid orientation + Illinois-required training (we cover everything)
2. Shadow shifts with an experienced caregiver
3. Solo shifts with full Supervisor backup
4. Hitting your stride - we check in to make sure it's a fit on both sides
