At Touching Hearts at Home, we believe that our clients deserve the best care. We do this by hiring compassionate home health aides who WANT to do this work because they love it. They are dedicated to their clients needs and committed to showing up each and every day for them. They see themselves as a social connector instead of just a visitor or passerby. In return, we go out of our way to recognize our care team for the work they do, pay competitively, and offer a variety of benefits, flexible scheduling and training opportunities. Senior Home Care is more than "just a job," it's a calling. If this resonates with you, APPLY NOW!

Social companionship and engagement: We don't just idly by while working with clients. We are actively engaged in conversation, participate in conversations and activities, encourage exercises or games, etc. We look for opportunities to enhance our client's lives socially.

We meet these requests politely with top-tier customer service in mind to meet their needs.

Relationship building: We all have a responsibility in building strong relationships and trust between aides and clients, aides and families, as well as aides and senior living community staff. It takes a village to provide care for our clients so strong relationships is critical to success.
