Job Description
Join Alara's Care Team Alara Home Care is a new, nurse-owned home health agency serving Southern Nevada, and we're hiring the first group of Home Health Aides who will care for Alara patients. We're building the kind of care culture we'd want for our own families: consistent caregivers, strong nursing support, high standards, and enough time to actually care for the person in front of you. Our patients are often medically complex adults who need ongoing help to remain safely and comfortably at home. Many are former nuclear and atomic workers receiving healthcare benefits through federal programs. The Role As an Alara Home Health Aide, you'll provide one-on-one care in patients' homes throughout Clark and Nye Counties, including Las Vegas and Pahrump . You'll work under the direction and supervision of Alara's nursing team and follow each patient's individualized plan of care. Whenever possible, we prioritize continuity. We want our patients to see familiar faces—and our aides to know the people they're caring for. That relationship matters. When you know someone's normal routine, mobility, appetite, mood, skin, or breathing, you're often the first person to notice when something changes. What You'll Do Depending on the patient's plan of care, responsibilities may include: Assist with bathing, grooming, dressing, and personal hygiene Assist with toileting and incontinence care Help with safe transfers, positioning, and mobility Assist with ambulation and prescribed exercises as directed Provide assistance with meals and hydration Perform light patient-related housekeeping Change bed linens and maintain a safe, comfortable patient environment Assist with other activities of daily living outlined in the plan of care Observe the patient's condition during care Recognize and promptly report changes or concerns to the supervising nurse Follow infection-control and safety practices Complete accurate, timely visit documentation Provide respectful, dependable, compassionate care A Care Culture Built by a Nurse Alara is nurse-owned and clinically led. Our aides are an important part of the clinical team—not an afterthought. You'll have nursing oversight, a clear plan of care, and a team to contact when you have a question or notice a change. We're also using technology to make the work around patient care simpler: clearer information, easier communication, and less unnecessary administrative friction.
