What are the responsibilities and job description for the Care Partner/Universal Worker position at Rakhma Inc?
Description
Rakhma, an ancient Aramaic word meaning "unconditional love" is the defining feature of all that we do. Our three locations, Grace (Minnetonka), Peace (Minneapolis), and Joy (St. Paul) provide dignity for individuals living with memory loss in a small home-like environment. We provide person-centered care and strive to deliver outstanding customer service to our residents, families, and vendors.
We are seeking hard-working, positive, and loving Care Partners that want to be part of the Rakhma family.
We currently have openings at our Minnetonka and St. Paul locations. We are hiring for both Full-time and Part-time.
Shift Hours: We are hiring full-time or part-time to be available to work different time shifts and potentially multiple locations. We also have some double shifts available. Shift hours: 6:40am-3:00pm, 2:40pm-11:00pm, 10:40pm-7:00am (weekends required). Unless you wish otherwise, we provide every other weekend off.
You will also be responsible for one on-call weekend every eight weeks (on an off weekend).
- On-Call weekends: You will be scheduled for weekend on-call. This means that you will pick up last minute open shifts from Friday 2:30pm to Monday 7:00am. For being on call, you will receive $100 for the weekend as long as you cover the shifts that become available. You will not have to cover more than 2 shifts in a row unless 1 of them is a sleeper position. It is possible that you could be called in to work on Friday evening, Saturday evening and Sunday overnight. It is also possible that you are not called in at all, in which case, you would still receive the $100 for the weekend.
Job responsibilities: All of our Care Partners are responsible for caregiving, med passing, housekeeping/projects and cooking.
All employees accrue Earned Safe and Sick Time.
