[quote=Anonymous]OP, think first about your connections. Probably there is an elder you can help, and be hired, without the certification. I mean, don't let the process of certification slow you down. Maybe there is a certification online. Do you know anyone presently in a retirement community? Visit. Be present. Socially get to know the residents. Mention that you are available. My elderly parents -first- just wanted someone they knew. Wanted that person 2x a week to pick-up things from the store they needed. Then, it was taking them to appointments. Then we were also paying for them to just sit and visit, keeping them company. Because they now had a close relationship. A lot will be non medical.[/quote]
