Job Summary:
Are you someone who finds joy in helping others and making a real difference every day? At PACE-RI, we’re looking for compassionate, reliable Home Care CNAs to join our team and support older adults in their homes. In this role, you’ll provide personal care based on individualized care plans—assisting with tasks like bathing, grooming, toileting, eating, and oral care—while helping to maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable home environment through light homemaking duties such as laundry, meal prep, and shopping.

You’ll also play a key role in providing behavioral support, monitoring for signs of agitation, wandering, or other behavioral changes, and reporting any emotional, physical, or cognitive shifts to our Home Care Department. Using equipment like gait belts or Hoyer lifts, you’ll follow safety procedures and care plans to support safe mobility and transfers. Prompt response to alarms and emergency situations is part of the role, as is ensuring that all care and interactions respect the participant’s dignity and privacy in line with our Participant Rights Policy.

Documentation is an important part of what we do—you’ll clock in and out at each visit, record completed care tasks in our system (AxisCare), and enter thorough, timely notes on any observations or changes in a participant’s condition. You may also assist with simple restorative exercises such as walking, implement recreational activities in the home, and monitor supply levels to ensure participants never run out of essential items.

We’re looking for someone who is not only attentive and organized but also deeply compassionate and respectful. Experience is helpful, but what matters most is your dedication to providing excellent, person-centered care. At PACE-RI, you’ll be part of a team that truly values your work and provides ongoing training and support to help you grow. If you’re ready to make a meaningful impact and be part of a caring, mission-driven organization, we’d love to hear from you.
