It's almost time for our annual Skills Fair! This year's theme is baseball and we are celebrating our "All Star Caregivers". We look forward to having you all in the line up that day! This is a mandatory training event and you will be paid $25 for your time. So please RSVP to Jan and let her know what time we can expect you. Get ready for food, prizes, fun, the photo booth, learning valuable skills, and more!

WELCOME

New Advanced Health Care Employees:

We are so happy you have chosen to be a part of our caring team!

Could you use an extra $200?

That is how much we PAY YOU for every person you refer to us as an employee. Once they are hired and work the 160 hour requirement, we write you a check! Send us a good caregiver or nurse that you know today.

Caregiver Profile:

Amanda H.

5+ years with AHC

What do you like about being a caregiver? "I’ve been doing it so long, it's second nature to me.   Some people reach the stage where they don’t care – I want to be the one that cares.   I love helping people when they need it the most. Even if they’re at the end of their life. I like knowing that I made a difference".

Any advice you would give a new caregiver? "The care you’re providing and what you’re doing is more important than you realize".

Always Supported

"Advanced answers whenever I call. The nurses are good about calling back, even if it’s the middle of the night. It makes me feel like I’m never alone when I’m with a client".

Thank you for your service, Amanda!
