Join Our Caregiving Team!

Some people assume their loved ones can automatically make healthcare decisions for them, but that’s not always the case. When a person becomes unable to make their own medical choices, someone must be legally appointed to step in. PNW Aging offers professional Healthcare Power of Attorney services — ensuring your values, preferences, and best interests are honored when you can no longer speak for yourself.

  • Do I need prior caregiving experience?
    Yes and no! If you’re dependable and compassionate, we’ll provide the training or connect you with the right resources. Caregivers are required to hold and maintain a credential such as a Nursing Assistant Registered (NAR), Home Care Aide (HCA) or Nursing Assistant Certified (CNA).

  • What types of clients would I work with?
    Most clients are older adults who need support with daily activities. We match you based on your comfort level and skills. This could be in the home or in a long-term care community.

  • How far would I need to travel?
    We aim to keep your commute minimal, and we always check in about availability. We also pay a premium rate for areas outside the area.

  • Do caregivers use their own vehicles?
    No. If transportation is part of the care plan, caregivers must use the client’s vehicle or accompany them on foot, bus, or rideshare.

  • How often do I get paid?
    Every other week via direct deposit.
