Be the Reason a Senior Gets to Stay Home
For many older adults, staying in their own home isn't just a preference — it's everything. It means independence, dignity, and comfort. As an In-Home Chore Worker with WASI, you'll be the person who makes that possible.
This is more than a housekeeping job. You'll build genuine relationships with the seniors you serve, show up when it matters most, and leave every shift knowing you made someone's day — and their life — a little better.
Why You'll Love This Role
- Personal, meaningful work — You're not just cleaning a house, you're protecting someone's independence and peace of mind
- Flexible scheduling — Full-time and part-time positions available to fit your life
- Supportive team — Join a caring, mission-driven organization that values every member of its staff
- Retirement plan included
- Make your own community stronger — Serve seniors right here in the Mat-Su Valley
What You'll Do
Every day looks a little different, and that's part of what makes this role so rewarding. You'll provide hands-on support that helps seniors live safely and comfortably in their own homes, including:
- Light housekeeping — cleaning, laundry, dishes, and changing bed linens
- Meal prep and assistance — preparing nutritious meals and helping clients eat as needed
- Grocery and errand runs — shopping for the items clients need to stay healthy and comfortable
- Safety monitoring — keeping a caring eye on your clients' health and home environment
- Encouragement and companionship — using positive, empowering interactions to boost confidence and independence
- Accurate documentation — keeping timely records and maintaining clear communication with your team and supervisors
You're a Great Fit If You...
- Are a compassionate, patient person who genuinely enjoys working with older adults
- Are self-motivated and can manage your time and tasks independently
- Work well as part of a team and communicate openly with colleagues and supervisors

- Take pride in doing good work and showing up consistently for the people counting on you
