Now Hiring Companion Caregivers

June 8, 2021

At Senior Home Companions, caregiving is more than a job — it’s a calling. Our stringent hiring practices mean that clients will benefit from the highest quality of care because we care about our companion caregivers too. Learn more about why you should work with Senior Home Companions, where you can serve with integrity, compassion and effectiveness. Plus, our Indiana offices are offering both signing bonuses for new caregivers and referral bonuses for current caregivers as an additional incentive to join the team through July 4. 

A Variety of Tasks and Flexible Hours

As a companion caregiver with Senior Home Companions, every day can be different. You’ll enjoy spending time with clients and their families and supporting their needs to remain independent at home. Examples of day-to-day care can include basic household upkeep, encouraging exercise and social engagements, organizing paperwork, meal preparation, grooming assistance and more. Plus, our client support can range from a few hours a week to 24/7 care, which means that you can work the best hours that fit into your schedule too. 

Ongoing Support and Education

Many of our companion caregivers are retired from successful careers and seeking out meaningful opportunities for service. And with our consistent caregiver training and team support, our staff tend to stick around! More than half of our caregivers have been with us for three years and some for more than two decades. Our 90% retention rate far surpasses the 65% industry average and provides our clients with consistent care and personalized service as they age in place.

Matching Caregivers & Clients

One of the best benefits of working with Senior Home Companions is our unique caregiver matching process. We conduct extensive interviews with clients and caregivers that assess personalities, hobbies and priorities to find the best fit for both parties. We know that in-home care is made exceptional with a deep-rooted relationship between clients, families and their companion caregivers, so we do our best to ensure that that relationship is built on mutual trust.
