If you are an experienced caregiver—such as a former travel CNA, registry professional, or seasoned home health aide—who thrives on variety, excels in high-acuity care, and loves mentoring others, this role is built for you. We are not a chaotic facility or a traditional agency that treats you like a number. We are looking for a Lead Field Care Specialist & Trainer who can step up as a trusted rock for our clients, our new team members, and our field operations across Southern Arizona.

Reliable Coverage Leader: Be our dependable go-to professional for shift coverage, planned vacations, and short-notice call-offs across our entire service area—ensuring our clients never experience a break in care.

Diverse & High-Acuity Experience: Proven background in high-acuity caregiving (travel CNA, agency, float pool, or registry experience is a huge plus). Unwavering Dependability: Consistency is the heart of this position. We need a rock-solid leader who takes pride in exceptional punctuality and reliability. Adaptability & People Skills: Comfortable stepping into new environments with ease, navigating diverse client backgrounds with cultural sensitivity, and leading others with patience and encouraging authority.
