Caregiver Recruiting

Discovering the Perfect Caregiver: A Heartfelt Journey with Comfort Keepers

Finding the perfect caregiver is a heartfelt journey that begins with understanding what makes a great caregiver. It's about recognizing the essential qualities and knowing how to search for and screen potential candidates effectively. Focusing on these key aspects ensures that your client receives the compassionate and dedicated care they deserve.

For over two decades, Comfort Keepers has been a beacon of hope for seniors and their families. Our in-home care that Elevates the Human Spirit, has touched the lives of tens of thousands. This is made possible by our dedicated caregivers who bring hope, connection, and joy to the lives they touch. Our mission is not just to help seniors thrive, but also to support, inspire, and nurture the caregivers who care for them.

Caregivers are the heart and soul of Comfort Keepers and that's why we're here for new franchisees every step of the way with uplifting training recruitment and retention support.

How We Help You Find the Right Caregivers

Our Comfort Keepers job website, ComfortKeepers.jobs, is the first recruitment-focused website for the home care industry and a leading destination for prospective caregivers and office team members to learn why they should become Comfort Keepers.

ElevateU Online offers eLearning modules and supporting training materials for caregiver recruitment, eLearning courses designed by Comfort Keepers for Comfort Keepers. The platform has a Manager Training Guide to help you work with your team to build a praise-worthy recruitment plan. The goal is to empower you with the tools and strategies necessary to attract exceptional talent and elevate the quality of care we provide to our clients. There are similar guides for other essential topics like Intake Call, Care Consultation, and Employee Engagement. These guides will help turn any training session into a team-building adventure!

After your team completes the recruitment eLearning, managers and franchise owners can download the Instructor-Led Training Materials found under resources in ElevateU. These will aid in bringing the recruitment discussion to your team, setting clear expectations for recruiting success within your office and walk through each step of the recruitment plan. Brainstorm innovative ways to find candidates and foster a culture that aligns with our values.

At Comfort Keepers, our brand promise is Elevating the Human Spirit and that applies to the network. Taking care of each other is our top priority, it's our commitment and what we ask of every Comfort Comfort Keeper. Nothing is more important than the experience teams have working with us, whether walking into an office or into a client's home. From the CEO to every caregiver, we are People Elevating People. Our cultural foundation influences the attraction, performance and retention of team members and caregivers across the system.

Benefits of Caregiving with Comfort Keepers

Nearly 3 out of 4 respondents gave Comfort Keepers a rating of 8 or higher (on a 10 point scale) when asked if they would recommend working there to a friend.
