When you become a Home Instead CAREGiver, you become part of a team. You enhance the quality of life for seniors in Berkshire County and help clients and families meet the challenges of aging with dignity, pride, care and compassion.

Plus, you're part of a team that truly cares about you. Right now, Home Instead Senior Care is offering signing bonuses of up to $1,200, starting pay at $15 an hour and company-provided PPE. They know that work-life balance is important, so they offer flexible part-time and full-time schedules with options for weekday, evening and weekend shift.

CAREGivers help with personal care (bathing, toileting, mobility), light housekeeping and companionship, but Home Instead will provide training on everything you need to know. Prior experience isn't necessary. They do ask that employees have a driver's license, a smartphone and a personal car.

Many CAREGivers love helping clients, as well as the support they receive from the rest of the Home Instead team. Take, for example, Barbara's experience. A few months before she was named CAREGiver of the Year, she had a client she'd been working with for a few years comment that since Barbara had been helping her, her health had improved to the point that she probably didn't need her services any more. It was a great feeling to have that level of independence back, but after she slept on it, the client decided that she needed Barbara in her life.
