  • Observing and reporting changes in cognition, mood, or behavior to the office/family

  • Other duties as assigned within the scope of non-medical home care

Qualifications and Skills:

  • Minimum 1-2 years of caregiving experience, with direct, hands-on experience caring for individuals with Alzheimer's and/or dementia (required)

  • Working knowledge of common dementia behaviors (sundowning, wandering, repetition, agitation) and appropriate response techniques

  • A genuine passion for helping others

  • Superior interpersonal and communication skills

  • Unwavering patience and emotional steadiness

  • Willingness to travel between client homes

  • Ability to pass a background check

  • Completion of dementia-specific training modules within the first 30 days of hire (provided via Care Academy)

Desired Attributes:
