Firefly Home Care -
Be on the lookout for our call - we call all applicants within one business day!
As a Caregiver Companion, you'll have the opportunity to connect with people in our community who need some companionship, help around the house or maybe errands around town. If you want to make a difference by helping someone in need but don't have formal caregiving experience or training, this is a perfect opportunity for you. Prior to your interview we'll ask you to complete a caregiver profile, which gives us more information about the type of cases and schedule you'd like. We'll provide you with the tools, training and support you need and then we'll match you with clients that fit your skills and preferences. As you become comfortable in your role, we'll give you additional training opportunities if you want to broaden your skill set. If you can answer "yes" to any of the following questions, this position may be a great fit for you :
- Have you ever gotten the mail for a neighbor, friend or loved one?
- Have you tended to a pet while a family was away on vacation or out of town?
- Have you driven someone you know to a grocery store and helped them shop?
- Have you walked with a friend recovering from surgery who needed the exercise or encouragement?
- Have you just sat and talked with someone who was isolated and lonely?
