We’re looking for part-time/full-time caregivers to join our team and help serve our sweet elderly clients!
CHC provides compassionate in-home care for seniors and adults with Disabilities in the Olympia area.

Capital Homecare is a worker-owned cooperative, meaning that the business is run BY caregivers and FOR caregivers. Instead of having one CEO making all the decisions for us, we make these decisions ourselves and reap the benefits!

We believe that caregivers do their best when they feel respected and valued for their work. That's why our caregivers have flexible schedules, member benefits, a voice in business decisions, and more!

We’re looking for part-time/full-time caregivers to join our team and help serve our sweet elderly clients!
CHC provides compassionate in-home care for seniors and adults with Disabilities in the Olympia area.

Caregivers clock in/out directly at their client’s home, perform caregiving tasks such as personal care, mobility assistance, medication reminders, transportation, etc. and log tasks before leaving. Our office works with caregivers to find their perfect schedule, and is available 24/7 for support.

Thank you to the illustrious and lovely Kim Dobson of Parallel University Radio Show for an absolutely wonderful and exhilarating conversation about home care cooperatives, challenges facing caregivers and the care industry, and more! Tune in this Thursday 12-30-21, 12-1 pm on KAOS 89.3 fm (kaosradio.org live stream ) to listen in!!!!

Thursday 12-30-21, 12-1 pm on KAOS 89.3 fm (kaosradio.org live stream ) Interview Monday 12-27-21 , 12 to 1pm on Zoom with Kim Dobson to produce a MP3 podcast for air play Guest :Co Founder Nora Edge Topic :Capital Homecare Co-Operative progress and news . The most recent news: Capital Homecare Co-op is turning 4 years old in march, in 2021 we gave out $4 in all staff raises and over $42K in bonuses and quarantine reimbursement to support caregivers through Covid19... a 4th homecare co-op opened in 2020 in Port Angeles WA, Ridgeline Homecare Co-op, and a 5th just opened its doors two months ago in Anacortes WA Heartsong Homecare Co-op (this 5th one is really cool because it was started by a lady who also lives in a resident owned community/double co-op coolness Kathy Rivas). Biggest challenges facing homecare (and homecare co-ops) is recruitment ( a more dangerous work environment in a post-c19 world, workers are realizing their worth and demanding it, co-ops at the forefront of that) and high cost of care to vulnerable adults, plus market flooded by multi-nationally owned franchise care factories..
