Job Description

At Omatochi, we believe that seniors should have the choice to age at home when possible, but sometimes they need a little extra help to do so. Our home health aides assist clients who live independently but need help to care for themselves or perform daily tasks such as cooking, cleaning, dressing, and bathing. They will also provide/assist with some social activities to keep the clients cognitively and emotionally engaged.

Most caregivers spend most of their time in their patients’ homes. They also spend a small portion of their time at the office to meet with their supervisors, attend meetings, upskill and regulatory training, and perform other administrative office tasks, as required.

Since caregivers perform their jobs in other people’s homes, they must adapt to various living conditions. The ideal candidate will be patient and friendly with excellent communication skills. You should be able to follow instructions and perform a variety of tasks to help clients.

Responsibilities

  • Help clients take prescribed medication.
  • Assist clients with ambulation and mobility around the house or outside (doctor’s appointments, walks, etc.)
  • Assist clients with personal care and hygiene.
  • Help clients complete physical therapy and other recommended exercises.
  • Do the client’s shopping or accompany them when they shop if needed.
  • Perform light housekeeping duties that clients can’t complete on their own, including preparing meals.
  • Collect information about conditions and treatment plans from caregivers, nurses, doctors, and family members.
  • Report any unusual incidents to nurses, doctors, and family members.
  • Act quickly and responsibly in cases of emergency

Requirements

  • Previous caregiver experience preferred but not required
  • Knowledge of housekeeping activities and cooking with attention to dietary constraints
  • Must be respectful and compassionate with a suitable bedside manner.
  • Outstanding communication, time management, and interpersonal skills
  • Physical endurance to complete required tasks
  • Enjoy working in a one-on-one setting, eager to improve and continuously learn new skills.
  • Ability to perform all essential job functions with or without accommodations
  • Validated ability to act in a compassionate and supportive manner
  • Willingness to enforce health and safety standards
  • Take pride in providing high-quality care

Compensation: $18-$22, Based on experience
