Have a flexible schedule<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At Assisting Hands Home Care, you tell us your availability, and we will work to find a case that fits with your schedule!

We help our clients live at home in comfort and with joy, and each of our clients\u2019 needs is different. Helping your clients may mean brushing up on your cooking skills, or practicing puzzles, or changing a lightbulb. And helping your clients definitely means working on your people skills!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You never know what experiences may come your way while you are working as a caregiver, and handling all manner of challenges and situations in your work will definitely help you continue to greet the world and it\u2019s various challenges with grace, respect and confidence. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">5. Learn from your elders\u2019 and hear their life stories<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to honing your domestic, recreational, creative and compassionate people skills, there is so much else to learn from your clients! Our seniors have lived full and interesting lives and hearing their stories is a beautiful part of our job. Our seniors love to tell their stories, and we love to hear them.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There is an African proverb: \u201cWhen an old person dies a library burns to the ground.\u201d As a caregiver you have the privilege to explore some very big libraries!\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">6. Feel good about helping someone<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the magical things about working as a caregiver is creating a meaningful relationship with your clients. You can leave work every shift, knowing that you have made a difference in someone\u2019s life. Many times, simply your presence in your client\u2019s life makes all the difference. Many of our clients live alone and may need some help around the house, and often they really need some company! If just your presence can make that big of an impact in a senior\u2019s life, think about how much good you are doing by helping your clients with as much as you do every shift.\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">7. Feel good about helping your community<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5811 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed.jpg\" alt=\"Beautiful nurse holding hand of old senior patient and comfort her\" width=\"380\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed.jpg 1688w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/08\/Caregiver-Patient-Bed-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the age of COVID-19, our seniors have especially been experiencing isolation and disconnection from their communities. Working as a caregiver is a safe way to help someone one on one with loneliness, and you can feel connected to your greater community by helping someone in your community! <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a plus, many of our clients have lived here for many years. Try asking your clients about how your town or area used to be, you may learn something new! <\/span><\/p>\n<h3>8. Be supported by a great staff<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We pride ourselves on not only cultivating a caring culture for our clients, but also for our caregivers. Our happy, helpful office staff is always ready to answer your questions and support you! <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Our Scheduling Coordinator, Melinda, will be in constant contact with you; she works hard to find a schedule that matches your needs. Our Case Manager, Aurora, will train you and help you with your on-the-job caregiving knowledge and skills. Our Office Administrator, Dawn, is happy to answer any of your payroll questions. And our Lead Caregiver, Allison, (that\u2019s me!) will help you with your credentials and with any support you need along the way! And Daniellah, the Assisting Hands owner and our fearless leader, will be there to guide and support you and our whole entire team!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>9.

This summer we had a virtual Zoom meeting to check in with everyone.<\/p>\n<p>And most importantly, we love to throw parties! When times are a little more back to normal, we love to have open houses and holiday parties at the office and sometimes at fun local spots in the area&#8230;last year we had a <a href=\"http:\/\/assistinghands.com\/2\/illinois\/arlingtonheights\/blog\/caregiver-appreciation-painting-party\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paint Night Potluck Party<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">10.
