- Comprehensive compensation package including base pay and bonus
- And additional benefits!
On the day-to-day, you will:
- Provide hands-on personal care assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) to WelbeHealth participants, including but not limited to assisting with escorting, toileting, bathing, dressing, grooming, laundry, and physical lifting when transferring participants
- Measure and document participants’ vital signs as instructed
- Act as a medical escort when needed, assisting participants with safely boarding and exiting WelbeHealth transportation vehicles
- Oversee activity on the day center floor to assure participant safety
- Assist with meal service, ensuring participants receive the correct meals, as well as assist with feeding when needed
- Maintain personal care supplies such as incontinence supplies and grooming items
Job requirements include:
- High school diploma or equivalent required
- Certified Home Health Aide (CHHA) or Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certification required
- Minimum of one (1) year of experience providing personal care to seniors
- Must be willing and have the ability to safely drive to and from participant escort assignment locations, including but not limited to medical and care appointments in the program service area
- Food Handlers Certification within 30 days of hire
- Must obtain CPR and First Aid certification within 180 days of hire and maintain certification thereafter; CPR and First Aid certification upon hire preferred
We are seeking a Personal Care Assistant that’s looking to start their career in the healthcare space. If you’re ready to join a holistic care team that values both its participants and team members, we’d love to hear from you!
Compensation consists of base salary plus bonus. WelbeHealth offers a competitive total rewards package that includes a 401(k) match, comprehensive healthcare coverage, and a broad range of additional benefits. Actual compensation will be determined based on experience and relevant qualifications.

Skills mentioned
At WelbeHealth, we're driven by a deep-seated mission to transform the lives of our most vulnerable seniors, enabling them to thrive and live with greater connection, vitality, and meaning. We were founded in 2015 by physicians who envisioned a world where every individual, regardless of age or health challenges, can participate fully in their communities until their final days. Our approach is rooted in the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), a comprehensive model that integrates all aspects of medical and social services. This means we coordinate everything from primary and specialist medical care, dental services, and physical and occupational therapy, to transportation for appointments, meal provisions, and engaging social activities. We believe in a holistic view of well-being, addressing not just the physical health needs but also the social determinants that impact our participants' lives. Our commitment extends beyond just providing services; it's about fostering a culture of 'Courage to Love.' This core value guides how we interact with our participants, their families, and each other. We strive to create an environment where every person feels uniquely cared for and valued. As a Public Benefit Company (PBC), a status we proudly adopted in June 2022, we are the first and only PACE provider to make this formal commitment. This means we hold ourselves to a higher standard of transparency and accountability, ensuring our mission and purpose are at the forefront of every decision. We are dedicated to improving the lives of older adults through these fully integrated services, creating meaningful job opportunities where our team members can serve a cause greater than themselves, and enriching communities by empowering our elders to live longer, more connected lives. We are constantly pioneering resourceful solutions to support participant health and independence, working collaboratively as a team with the shared intention of making a profound difference.
