Where this can lead
This is a real career, not a stopgap. Caregivers here move from Caregiver to Senior Caregiver, and from there into Client Care, Scheduling, or Operations depending on your strengths and what you want next. We've had caregivers make every one of those transitions. Stay a caregiver if that's your calling. If you're ready for more, we'll notice.
