208 Home Care is looking for a compassionate, reliable caregiver to assist an adult client with personal care services.
Pay Rate: $22.00 per hour
Schedule: Looking for 24 hour care every day of the week. Ideally we would prefer 12-hour shifts so that there isn’t such a big period to try to fill if someone is sick, but we will consider 24 hour shifts for extremely reliable care providers.
Location: Nampa
About the Client:
The client is in the beginning stages of dementia and uses a walker for some slight mobility issues. The client’s primary language is Romanian, but can speak enough English to get by. He does get a bit verbally aggressive when frustrated, and it seems to mainly stem from communication issues so a Romanian speaking care provider would be beneficial, but at minimum this client needs patience and kindness.
Responsibilities:
The care provider would be responsible for preparing meals for the client and taking him on errands, and general oversight/stand by assist for bathing and other activities. A lot of it would be companion/supervision as he wants to be independent but needs to do things safely.
Ideal Candidate:
• Romanian speaker or comfortable interacting with someone with a language barrier
•Able to pass a background check through the Idaho Department of Health & Welfare
• Able to pass a urine drug test (Prescribed medication is acceptable)
• Must complete Direct Care Professional (DCP) Training or have equivalent training certificate (exempt w/ CNA/LPN/RN License). The agency can help you get registered for this training and there is no cost associated with it.
• Must have a valid form of government-issued Identification and proof of Employment Authorization to work in the United States.
•Able to follow HIPAA guidelines, document accurately, and communicate effectively with your client and with the office.
Interested applicants should contact 208 Home Care to discuss the case and set up an interview.
