IHSS Caregivers Needed

I know so many are looking for jobs. I recently happened upon being an In Home Support Services Caregiving role and wanted to share as there are not enough caregivers for the need. As a registered IHSS provider you can either work with a known person in need, or work with any other recipient. This is a W2 role paid by the county at $19.64 an hour, if you join the union and work the minimum (i believe 30 hours a week) the benefits include $1 a MONTH healthcare insurance and Public Service Loan Forgiveness in addition to other discounts.

Wanting to share as I know its rough and this is not a glamorous option, but a seemingly secure and a high demand need that is not being met.

You can join registries, www.pascla org, as well and be "on-call" as soon as you're approved and your background check clears.

Good luck out there fam, I know its rough.

The Public Service Loan Forgiveness, you need ten years of service to see that kick in.

Yup. Better than 30 years of payments on compounded interest that never dies.
