NEW Jobs Created by OLD Age


(HealthNewsDigest.com) - With the national unemployment rate remaining stubbornly high at 9.7%, and with more and more companies going under, where on earth can you find a job these days? Especially a job that’s rewarding and helps other people? Look no farther than your aging parents and relatives, who are creating one of the biggest economic booms this country has ever seen. More people are living longer and we need more people to take care of them. That’s why Senior Helpers, the nation’s fastest growing provider of in home senior care, with offices nationwide, is hiring responsible, compassionate people as in- home caregivers to serve the nation’s growing senior population.

“The senior care industry is booming because of the growing demographics of our aging population so we have jobs available for high quality candidates,” says Peter Ross, CEO and founder of Senior Helpers. “In home care giving is rewarding work that’s recession resistant and it provides peace of mind for families who just can’t be with their aging loved ones all the time.”

IN HOME CARE GIVING SOLVES NATIONAL DILEMMA

More than 50 million people - one in five adults- provide care for an elderly family member or friend.
The National Caregivers Association reports the typical caregiver is a middle aged daughter caring for an elderly parent or grandparent while juggling a family and a job. 80% report emotional strain. 60% report financial strain and miss work because of care giving responsibilities.
The problem will eventually affect all of us. In the coming years, two out of ten people in the U.S. will be age 65 or older. Who will take care of them? Who will take care of us as we age?

REWARDING WORK FOR AMERICANS WHO DON’T FEEL MUCH JOY IN THIS ECONOMY

Nichole Henry was out of work when she got the job as a Senior Helpers’ caregiver. She is studying to be an RN and works helping elderly clients prepare meals, take their meds on time and simply listening when they want to talk. “I wanted a rewarding job and I have found my calling, “says Henry. “ There is no greater job than helping others who can’t do for themselves. I listen to their concerns with an open heart and it makes all the difference in the world! “

All the difference in the world because Senior Helpers caregivers like Nichole provide care giving services with seniors who wish to live at home as opposed to a nursing or assisted living facility. The company has 283 franchises in 39 states and one in Canada offering a wide range of personal and companion care services to assist seniors living independently with a strong focus on quality of life for the client and peace of mind for their families. Each Senior Helper’s office could have as many as two caregiver positions open each week, depending on the volume of elderly clients.

“It’s a growing field for sure and we’re happy to provide rewarding jobs to quality people so we give our families the most compassionate caregivers we can find” says Ross.
