Picture this….the perfect career that you not only love, but that allows you to make a difference in someone’s life! Sound too good to be true? It all depends on your perspective. Being a caregiver can be exhausting and hard, but knowing that your efforts directly make an impact on someone’s quality of life can make it all worth it. We know these types of careers aren’t for everyone, but what if you are one of the few that would love it?
Care work is definitely a role that requires a certain type of person. It is a career that is trying and requires a great deal of patience. It takes dedication and should never be considered as an easy option for employment. It can take a toll physically and emotionally. But if you want to make a difference in your community and help those in need, this may be the career for you. There are all kinds of wonderful experiences that come along with care work. You will get to help teach and encourage. You will witness huge successes and milestones being met, and you will get to play a huge role in those wins!
There is also room for growth and expanding your knowledge in our caregiver position. There are many individuals that have been with Bona Vista since they started as a caregiver and have moved into house manager and service coordinator positions, even director level positions. With continued training and staff development opportunities, you will have the support to go where your caring heart leads you!
