Life at Heathcote
Our team is as varied as the people we serve. Caregivers, nurses, cooks, drivers and office staff all share one goal: helping residents enjoy their days. We welcome applicants from every background and experience level.
Staff tell us they stay for the people, the steady schedules and the chance to grow, and our average caregiver has been with us for more than five years.
Staff Benefits
Fair Pay
Wages reviewed every year against the Portland market.
Health Coverage
Medical, dental and vision plans for staff working twenty hours or more.
Years of Service
We mark milestones with time off and a gift chosen by your team.
Paid Time Off
Time off that grows with your tenure, plus paid parental leave and flexible swaps between shifts when life happens.
Staff Council
An elected group that meets leadership monthly to raise ideas and concerns.
Team Gatherings
Seasonal staff meals, a summer picnic and recognition days throughout the year.
A Thorough Start
Two weeks of paid orientation and shadowing before your first solo shift.
Room to Grow
Tuition help for nursing and leadership study, plus mentoring from senior staff.
Student Placements
Heathcote partners with local colleges to host nursing, therapy and social work students at all three communities each term.
Schools and students interested in a placement can contact our learning coordinator through the form below.
Steady Schedules
Shifts posted four weeks ahead, with a fair system for swaps and extra hours whenever you want them.
Real Support
A shift lead to turn to on every shift and a supervisor who knows your name and your goals.
A Place to Stay
Many of our team leaders started as caregivers. We promote from within whenever we can.
Grow Your Skills With Paid Learning
We offer paid continuing education every year, from memory care support and first aid to leadership workshops for shift leads. Staff working toward a nursing or care management qualification can apply for tuition help.
Our learning coordinator meets every new hire after ninety days to set goals, and again each year to plan the next step.
The strongest caregivers I have worked with were given time to learn, a team that had their back and a reason to stay. We try to offer all three, because residents feel the difference when staff are happy.
