As Careforce cruises into March, there are few things on our mind like our Caregivers. We are focused on hitting our goal of 100% team vaccination — if you haven’t gotten your vaccine yet, please contact HR@careforce.com for additional resources! We also will be holding a N95 Fit Test day on-site at our Lynnwood HQ on Monday 3/15, please reach out if you have any questions about how to get signed up!

Careforce rolls out new Caregiver Benefit Package in 2021

This past fall our team spent time reflecting on what we all felt was an incredibly challenging, yet exciting year for Careforce. We were growing quickly, but understood that the context of our growth was overshadowed by the incredible tragedy that is COVID-19, and its horrible impact on our community. As we closed out the year, we asked ourselves what we could do to improve our community, and better support our front line workers — our Care Team.

Leaning on direct feedback from our caregiving team, we settled on an overhaul of our benefits package that now includes PTO, 401k, Vision & Dental, and Tuition Reimbursement. We are incredibly proud to offer a robust suite of industry leading benefits to our caregivers and nurses, without further ado:

Health, Dental & Vision Insurance

We offer access to Health, Dental and Vision insurance to qualified employees. We cover 75% of employee premiums to help ensure that those who are taking care of others can take care of themselves too!

401k Retirement Saving Plan

Saving for retirement can be hard, but we make it easy with an optional automatic transfer to a 401k for qualified employees.  

Holiday Pay for 8 Company Holidays

We observe 8 holidays a year and while our work never stops, we know the importance of compensating Caregivers extra for time worked on these days.

Bonus Programs

Making extra money is as simple as working! We have a variety of bonuses that Caregivers can access by simply working full time hours, referring a friend to work for us, or getting great customer feedback!

Free Continuing Education

We give our Caregivers access to a portal of online classes that can be used towards fulfilling the annual state requirement of their licenses or just to freshen up on skills they have already learned.  

Tuition Reimbursement

Semiannually, qualified employees can apply for reimbursement towards the cost of HCAC or CNA coursework up to $300 every 6-months.

Weekly Pay with Direct Deposit

We provide our caregivers with access to their pay quicker and easier with weekly paychecks deposited directly into their banks.

Paid Time Off (PTO)

We all need time to rest and recharge! All caregivers are eligible to accrue PTO to be used as they need to help achieve work/life balance.

Financial Wellness Program (FinFit)

Financial planning can be confusing and knowing where to turn can be a welcomed help! We have partnered with a company FinFit to provide caregivers access to financial planning resources, coupons, discounts and other tools to make financial planning not so confusing.

Testimonials

I know my mother was difficult at times, when she was in pain she could be demanding and gruff, but she always appreciated the kind and compassionate care. We always felt confident that my mother was in good hands, which gave us peace of mind, something really important in our situation.

My mother’s caregiver takes personal intent in my mother’s well-being, alerting me to any areas of concern, communicating with me daily, and gives me peace of mind; my mother is in excellent care.
