• Provide medication reminders, assist with daily routines, and remain available for overnight needs.

• Perform light housekeeping, meal preparation, and accompany clients to appointments or errands.

• Use assistive equipment such as Hoyer lifts when required.

• Document care accurately and report any health or safety concerns promptly.

Requirements:

• Availability for live-in shifts (3 to 4 consecutive 24-hour periods).

• Must be willing and able to travel throughout our service territories, which include:
  Quad Cities (Moline, IL & Bettendorf, IA), Champaign, IL, Oak Park, IL, Crystal Lake, IL, and Rockford, IL.

• Caregiving experience required; CNA certification preferred.

• Comfortable with the physical demands of caregiving, including lifting (up to 25 lbs).

• Ability to adapt to various home environments and respond to overnight needs.

• Comfortable using basic technology for training and daily documentation.

What Makes You Stand Out:

• Reliability: You provide consistent, trustworthy care over multiple days.

• Compassion: You support clients with kindness, empathy, and patience.

• Professionalism: You respect the privacy and dignity of each client and their home.

• Independence: You confidently manage care routines with minimal supervision.
