A Talking To Elderly job involves engaging in conversations with senior citizens to provide companionship, emotional support, and social interaction. This role can take place in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, or private residences. Workers may discuss various topics, listen to life stories, and offer comfort to reduce feelings of loneliness. Strong communication and empathy skills are essential for building meaningful connections.
In a position where your main duty is to communicate with elderly individuals, your day often involves engaging in conversation to provide companionship, monitoring their well-being, and sometimes assisting with light activities or reminders. You may document daily interactions and report any significant changes to family members or healthcare professionals. Depending on the setting, you could work independently visiting clients in their homes, or as part of a team in a senior center or assisted living facility. Building trusting relationships and providing emotional support are central to the role, making each day fulfilling and unique.
To excel in a role focused on talking to the elderly, one needs excellent verbal communication, active listening skills, patience, and often a background in social work, psychology, or geriatric care. Familiarity with record-keeping systems or scheduling software, and sometimes certification in elder care or companion services, may be required depending on the employer. Compassion, emotional intelligence, and the ability to build rapport are standout soft skills. These abilities are essential for effectively supporting seniors' emotional well-being and ensuring their interactions are positive and meaningful.

We are a home care agency that has been in business since 2007 and in need of a person to perform in-home assessments of elderly clients in the Houston, TX region (clients located within a 2-3 hour drive of Houston). $40/hour.
The assessment consists of talking to the client in person at their home - and asking a few questions about their non medical care needs (i.e. Bathing, dressing, grooming, light house cleaning, etc).
The assessments take 30 minutes. Travel time is paid from the person's home and back at $40/hour. Flexible schedule. Can work anytime from 8am to 8pm Monday through Sunday. Weekends only is acceptable. Great part time job for extra money on the side of your regular job.
We just started a contract with a large referral source so there is not a big need right now - but as we get more clients in the program the need will grow. When we have need of an assessment we will reach out and you would need to get the assessment completed within 14 calendar days of getting notified of the new assessment.
Must get a TB (Tuberculosis) skin test if not had one recently. You can go to your local County Health Department and walk in to get a skin TB Test. Just provide your ID and tell them it is for employment. It costs $25. You will return 48-72 hours later to have it checked. Here is a list of County Health Departments: https://www.naccho.org/membership/lhd-directory . You can also do this at CVS Minute Clinics. Schedule appt. online at your local CVS. Cost is $75. We reimburse the $75 on your first paycheck - if you keep the receipt: www.minuteclinic.com.
BEWARE OF SCAMS! IMPORTANT! WE ALWAYS CONNECT WITH JOB APPLICANTS VIA TEXT/PHONE AT FIRST - BUT WILL NEVER OFFER A POSITION TO AN APPLICANT WITHOUT FIRST DOING A ZOOM INTERVIEW OR INTERVIEW IN PERSON IN ONE OF OUR OFFICES. IF SOMEONE TEXTS YOU AND SAYS THEY ARE WITH CARE PLANNING INSTITUTE AND THEY WANT TO DO AN INTERVIEW VIA TEXT AND THEN OFFER YOU A JOB VIA TEXT/PHONE WITH NO ZOOM OR IN PERSON INTERVIEW - THAT IS A SCAM.
Again, we may initially reach out via phone or text - but we will never extend a job offer before doing a face-to-face camera on Zoom or meet with you in one of our office locations. Our online recruiters are all female. If you do a face-to-face Zoom Interview with someone who is NOT female that is a scam.
ALSO, IF THE JOB AD IS LISTED UNDER ANY COMPANY NAME THAT IS NOT ‘CARE PLANNING INSTITUTE’ – IT IS A SCAM. WE DO NOT USE OTHER COMPANIES TO RECRUIT FOR US. LASTLY, IF THEY ARE CONTACTING YOU VIA AN EMAIL ADDRESS THAT DOES NOT END WITH @CAREPLANNINGINSTITUTE.ORG THEN THAT IS A SCAM. WE ONLY USE EMAIL ADDRESSES THAT ARE FROM OUR COMPANY DOMAIN – WE DO NOT USE GMAIL OR ANY OTHER SUCH EMAIL ACCOUNTS.
