"Great experience, fun and supportive work environment
Caregiver (Current Employee) - Clearwater, FL
FirstLight does a nice job matching my skills and experience with the right client. They are always there to answer any questions and offer support. They offer several benefits that are nice- health & dental insurance, paid time off, training, and they even pay my mileage and travel time."
"Great Culture, Fair, and Supportive
Caregiver (Current Employee) - Clearwater, FL
Typical day is assisting clients with their day-to-day activities so they can remain at home. I learned so much here- they run paid training meetings every week on relevant topics that help support my role as caregiver. Management is fair- they just want you to work hard and do the right thing. The culture is fun- lots of events, food, rewards for performance, etc. The hardest part is in dealing with difficult clients or families that have unrealistic expectations about what I do. When that happens, I let my supervisor know and they handle it well and support me. I love my clients and winning them over- so often they are scared and upset about their condition. I try to overcome this and help them enjoy the best quality of life that is possible and that's the most rewarding part! FirstLight is a great agency- I'm very happy here."
