More about Nu Care Inc
The organization specializes in in-home respite care, primarily supporting adults, children, and youth with special needs including Autism, Down Syndrome, and other developmental disabilities. Their services focus on one-on-one care in clients' homes, assisting with daily living skills, routines, and developmental support. For nursing professionals, it is important to note that Nu Care's workforce is predominantly composed of caregivers, home health aides, and direct support professionals rather than registered nurses. The company does list a Nursing department on its Indeed profile, suggesting some nursing roles may exist, but the available review data (13 reviews on Indeed) comes primarily from non-RN staff. The company emphasizes dependability, compassion, and a warm attitude in its hiring criteria, and positions itself as an 'Employer of Choice' agency. Nurses considering Nu Care should understand that this is a home care context with a developmental disability focus, which differs significantly from acute care hospital settings.
Nu Care describes itself as a family-owned home care company dedicated to serving the community at home. Their hiring philosophy emphasizes selecting care professionals based on dependability and a warm, compassionate attitude. The company frames its mission around being 'HEROes' in the community and building a legacy of quality in-home care. Their job postings emphasize compassion, dependability, and the ability to make a positive impact in the lives of individuals with special needs and their families.
