Job Description

Always Best Care is looking for those special CNAs who are willing to help our client's who need the added security of a live-in caregiver. We have available a variety of assignments from short-term temporary assignments, as well as regular 2-day, 3-day, 4-day and 5-day per week assignments. Caregivers are sometimes required to drive our clients to appointments, so a valid driver's license and access to a vehicle is a plus, but not always required. Live-in care is a special service we offer to clients who need the help and security of a full-time caregiver living on the premises with them. It can be very rewarding for families and caregivers alike, because caregivers and their clients really get to know each other well. However, it is also important to remember the professional nature of the relationship, and that caregivers are there to do a specific job. What Exactly is Live-In Care? “Live-in care” is a 24-hour period that a caregiver spends with their client in the client’s home. Live-in shifts come with the expectation that over the 24-hour period, the caregiver gets 8 hours of sleep, meal or other breaks, including at least 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night. Caregivers should have a bed to sleep in and accommodation for some privacy. A spare bedroom is ideal, but not necessarily required. Caregivers are hired on a per diem basis, and are paid a daily rate. We offer very competitive compensation for live-in care. We support our live-in caregivers with frequent "check-in visits" to ensure that both you and the client are doing well. We generally do not put you on assignment for a period of greater than 2-weeks for temporary cases, and usually have two-caregivers per client, so that each caregiver has time off each week. CNA's strongly preferred, although an experienced live-in caregiver with demonstrated clinical skills would also be a successful.
