Caregiver/CNA Bed-Bound Care

One 20-minute in-person interview at our office, then your paperwork, Orientation Video Call and paid orientation and training, all from home on your phone or computer.

Caring Companions is building a small, steady team of caregivers for a client in Springfield who needs help with personal care and transfers.

Care is needed every day, in two shifts

Mornings, 9am to 2pm

Evenings, 4pm to 9pm

That is 7 days a week, so we are hiring several caregivers. Pick the shifts and days that work for you, mornings, evenings or some of each, and we will build a schedule the whole team can count on.

You would be helping with bathing, dressing, toileting and safe transfers, along with meals, light housekeeping and good company. We train you on safe transfer technique before you start, and experience with transfers or a CNA certification is a plus.

This is W-2 employment, not contract work. You are paid weekly, overtime is paid over 40 hours, and you complete paid orientation and training from home before you start.
