Secure Care Jobs (NOW HIRING)

ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

Wesley Secure Care is a Maryland-based, mission-driven, nonprofit organization dedicated to helping older adults remain in their own homes as they age, through a personalized plan of coordinated support and care so they can thrive with confidence and security. Through our Continuing Care at Home (CCaH) membership program, members receive coordinated home-based services, support with medical appointments, and financial protection that allows them to plan ahead and remain independent as their needs change. Should members eventually require long-term services in their homes or in their choice or available retirement community, assisted living, or nursing home, Wesley Secure Care helps coordinate and pay for these services as well.

Our office is based in Towson, but our positions work between our office, home office, and in the field throughout Maryland.
