The Heart of Our Business

Our caregivers have proven to be resilient, continuing to work in conditions they have not faced in the past. Day in and day out, they are ensuring that even when they are not on the clock, they are taking the necessary measures to avoid exposure to the virus, so that their clients are kept safe. While many other fields of work closed down at the beginning of the pandemic, and are facing shut downs again, Home Care is not one of them. Our caregivers’ careers are essential, and their hard work is needed 24/7. First Light Home Care cannot be anymore thankful for our hardworking healthcare workers, and have attempted to show them how much they are appreciated, through increased compensation, constant communication, caregiver appreciation bonuses for those working on the frontlines during COVID-19, and more. FirstLight Home Care has an immense level of appreciation and gratitude for our dedicated workers, and recognizes their selfless and tireless efforts to keep others safe.

Quotes From Our Caregivers

By Cynthia

“My experience working with FirstLight has been and still is an amazing place to work. Even through the whole pandemic FirstLight always made sure my health was safe along with my companion. I love how FirstLight screens all health-care workers, issues gloves, masks, and hand sanitizer to keep us all safe.

It has been scary working the front lines; worried about coming into contact with the COVID virus, and if I do come into contact, the fear it might take my own life or affect my family.  Working with FirstLight I know they have my back and would make sure I’m taken care of until recovery.

I love working for FirstLight and the whole reason why I applied to work there is I care about people and have a big heart.”

By Laura

“In this time of pandemic, working with First Light has been the best. I’ve had support, and they really care about both the client and their workers. I am very happy and grateful to have found such a great company. ☺☺”

By Dorothy

“I love being a caregiver, it is so rewarding to me. During the pandemic, times have been challenging but make me love my work more knowing that I’m helping my clients through tough times.”

How Can I Manage My Stress As a Caregiver?

Caregiving is a rewarding, yet demanding field of work. FirstLight Home Care acknowledges caregiver stress and the demanding nature of the job.

If you are a caregiver, please take time to incorporate stress reducers into your daily routine, and make sure you are getting the support you deserve. Many caregivers find themselves in a state of exhaustion, because they spend their time and energy caring for others, and neglect focusing enough time on themselves. Stress reduction is critical in a demanding field such as caregiving, and choosing to incorporate small daily habits focused on relaxation and time dedicated to just you, can go a long way.
