\\Join the FirstLight Family — Where Caring is a Calling\\
At FirstLight Home Care, we believe everyone deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for — right in the place they call home. We support seniors, veterans, adults with disabilities, and families who need a helping hand, and we do it with heart.
\\What You'll Do\\
You'll be the best part of someone's day. That means:
✅ Helping clients with daily routines — bathing, dressing, grooming, and meals
✅ Keeping their home clean, safe, and comfortable
✅ Monitoring vitals and reporting any changes to the care team
✅ Supporting mobility with assistive devices when needed
✅ Providing medication reminders and following care plans
✅ Showing up as a trusted companion who makes independence feel possible
\\What You Bring\\
You've got experience in home care, assisted living, or a similar setting — and more than that, you genuinely care. You're calm under pressure, patient by nature, and the kind of person who remembers how someone takes their coffee.
⭐ Experience with ADLs, vitals monitoring, and care plans
⭐ Familiarity with dementia, Alzheimer's, autism, or developmental disabilities is a plus
⭐ CPR certified and HIPAA-savvy preferred
⭐ Strong communication, empathy, and a respectful approach to caregiving
\\Requirements\\
- Must be 18 years of age or older
- Valid driver's license required
Must be able to pass a background check
\\Why FirstLight?\\
This isn't just a job — it's meaningful work you'll feel at the end of every shift (in the best way). You'll be backed by a team that supports you, values you, and celebrates the difference you make every single day.
