Loving Care Agency is a leading provider of Home Care Services that enables children to be cared for in their home environment that is warm, familiar, and nurturing. Our highly qualified team clinicians (including nurses, home care aides and therapists) provide the highest quality care with compassion, commitment, and integrity.
Working with a child in their home is a chance to make a difference not only to that child but also to their family. It's a position where you have an opportunity to receive as much if not more than you give. This is more than a career choice; it could very well be the most rewarding experience in your career. Many nurses have commented that they are now able to be the nurse that they started out in nursing to be by giving total patient care to one child instead of rushing in and out of different rooms in a blur.
Hiring immediately for all shifts, full time and part time hours available
