It’s commonly estimated that the average person will spend 90,000 hours at work in their lifetime. With such a large chunk of our lives spent at work, it’s natural to want to do something that has a positive impact on the world around us. A great way to do meaningful work is to go into caretaking. At Hawaiian Legacy Home Care, we thrive on not only providing the care many Hawaii families need but also creating career opportunities for professionals who are looking to provide care in a personal setting. Here’s how you can become a part of our mission to provide compassionate care in Kaneohe and Honolulu, Hawaii.
Learn about our mission and vision.
Healthcare, in general, is not only a way to earn an income, but it also directly impacts the lives of others for the better. However, home care is unique in that it allows caregivers to enter a space where the care recipient is familiar and comfortable. Homes are a sacred space where countless memories and emotions are attached. Home care providers are allowed to be a part of those memories and emotions in a positive way while they provide life-changing care to the recipient, as well as relief to their families. Home care providers also serve as a means of creating hope. When many feel as though moving into a community is their only option or that they’re on their own when it comes to caring for their loved ones, home care providers step in and allow care recipients to stay home and give family members peace of mind that they are not alone. These are just a few reasons why home health care is a unique opportunity to make a powerful difference in the lives of the most vulnerable.
Home care isn’t a one-size-fits-all opportunity; our services are diverse and customized to the unique needs of the recipient. This approach gives your career a level of excitement and flexibility that keeps each day of work as unique and diverse as the people we serve.
Our broadest offering is personalized care, which includes the activities of daily living that our partners are unable to accomplish for themselves. This includes: bathing, grooming, dressing, feeding, and other essential activities. Personal care is a means of giving care recipients dignity in their everyday lives. These necessities can often be overlooked or taken for granted, but our team believes that every person deserves the dignity of being able to have access to these necessities, regardless of their physical or mental condition. Our caregivers bridge the gap for the most vulnerable to feel dignified and cared for.
Beyond personal care, our caregivers can assist by performing basic homemaking tasks. This includes cleaning, shopping, meal preparation, and other household tasks. As a caregiver, you’ll have the opportunity to give the care recipient the peace of mind that their home is in order and cared for.
For many, an individual’s care journey begins with a loved one serving as the caregiver. It is often later when an outside party is introduced. By the time an outside caregiver is brought into the home, the families are often burned out by trying to balance their everyday lives while caring for their loved one. What respite care does is that it offers family members the time they need to recover in order to come back into the role of caregiver.
