The city
Living in Boston, MA
Boston blends world-class medicine with deep colonial history. Compact walkable neighborhoods like Back Bay and the South End sit beside the Charles River. Winters are real and housing is costly, but nurses gain access to America's premier healthcare corridor.

More about TheKey
The organization focuses on comprehensive, science-based long-term care that enables seniors to age safely at home, reimagining home care from basic assistance into a more sophisticated care model. TheKey operates both caregiver services and a Concierge Nursing division (formerly Expicare) that places RNs in private home settings for premium in-home care. For nursing professionals, TheKey offers a departure from traditional hospital environments, positioning itself as an alternative to busy hospital settings. The company emphasizes a team-based approach and describes itself as an 'Employer of Choice' with dedicated local teams providing support to caregivers and nurses. RN opportunities appear to focus on concierge-level in-home care, particularly for those with IV experience, while caregiver roles form the bulk of posted positions in the Bellevue area. The organization operates across multiple states with corporate and field office roles, suggesting a scaled operational structure.
TheKey's mission is 'to be the most trusted source of long-term care for aging at home.' The organization states it is 'changing how the world lives and ages at home' and is 'reimagining what long-term care at home can be, transforming it from basic assistance into comprehensive, science-based' care. Core values emphasize trust, compassion, expertise, accountability, and honoring the dignity and well-being of aging adults.
