Description

Are you looking for a job that will make a difference in your community? At Home Instead, it's our mission to improve the lives of those we serve every day.

We are looking for a trusted and heartfelt Care Professional to join in our mission of helping seniors stay safe and independent in their homes.

Meet Harry. Harry is 94 years-old and his wife has just passed. He is all alone in his home and surrounded by all the memories it brings.

He remembers working in the yard as his children played, teaching them how to ride a bike, and having barbecues on the deck.

He cherishes the memories of holiday meals in the dining room, watching Flames games in the family room, and countless game nights around the kitchen table.

Harry lives with Dementia - his memory is beginning to fail and he needs help remaining engaged in life.

He does not remember how to do simple tasks and needs encouragement and coaching to be able to complete tasks successfully.


These tasks include, but are not limited to:

  • Light housekeeping and meal preparation
  • Medication reminders
  • Driving clients to appointments and running errands
  • Supporting people with Alzheimer's or Dementia
  • Assisting with personal care, including dressing, grooming, and bathing
  • Ability to communicate with clients in a friendly and engaging way

Care Professional Requirements:


  • Must have a dedicated vehicle and a valid Class 5 driver's license
  • Great written and verbal communication skills, in English
  • Consistent, nonflexible availability
  • Clear criminal background check

What We Provide to You:


  • Paid training by experienced instructors (no previous experience necessary)
  • Ongoing, 24/7 support from the Home Instead team
  • Competitive hourly wages
  • Ongoing client assignments see the same clients on a regular basis
  • Flexible schedule
  • Care Professional referral bonus program
