Elderly Companion

Elderly Companion
Part Time • Manhattan
Bring your outgoing personality and compassion for supporting older adults!
ComForCare NYC is a companion care agency that specializes in matching our elderly clients with highly intellectual and unique people within New York City in helping them with their day-to-day and much more! We hire unique individuals from all areas of study and working professionals of all kinds to become companions and provide social engagement and caregiving. You would differ from other caregivers because being a companion means you will focus on your experiences with our clients along with helping them with their day-to-day and having conversation. We encourage you to share your passions and skills with someone who can really appreciate you!
Our clients do not require support with ADLs or “hands-on personal care”. They are looking for someone with a bright smile and different life experiences who are interested in bridging a generational gap and enjoying each others company. Our job openings are first and foremost about creating a personal connection with your client, not just providing care. Many of our positions will involve experience in supporting clients with early to moderate-stage dementia so bring your personal or professional experience.
There is no assisting with bathing, feeding, toileting or other "hands on" care. No certificates are required. You do not need to be a certified aid. Our clients are independent. All you need is the time and the love to help others.
Why Work For Us?
- Earn very competitive compensation of $16-20 per hour, without doing any lifting or strenuous physical activities
- We care about the individuality of our caregivers and our clients. We want to know about your interests, experiences, and passions so that we can thoughtfully match you with our clients
- You will have the unique opportunity to get immersive, evidence-based training in supporting adults with dementia; these are interactive virtual and classroom experiences that allow you to ask questions and role-play situations that caregivers really face
- In addition to getting support from our staffing and client services team, you will often be working with some of the best care managers and social workers in NYC
- You will be recognized when you do a great job and improve the life of an older adult
Typical Activities and Responsibilities
- Providing companionship to older adults and individuals with chronic conditions; this may include discussing current events or shared interests, or taking trips to cultural or entertainment venues
- Assisting with non-physical tasks such as meal preparation, medication reminders, grocery shopping, and light housework like folding laundry or throwing away leftovers
