I want to suggest that you make a profile on Care.com and gain your own, optional clients, on your own schedule. I suggest this site, because a lot of clients on there are not Medicaid, and are clients of families willing to pay the $20-$25 an hour for the services provided to their loved one. Wishing you continuing success!
Also you will need to get malpractice insurance for yourself if you are going to work as a an independent contractor, & a Federal tax ID ( I think ) If you are a RN you can probably get a policy affiliated with the ANA (American Nurses’ Association) sources which are listed in their monthly magazine in the “Ad” section (Journal of thr ANA.) Good luck!
What experience do you have caregiving for the elderly? You might want to start with an agency to get experience and a reputation for efficient and compassionate and reliable caregiver. Sometimes families will want to direct hire a caregiver they are very happy with. To do this they are usually required to pay a finders fee to the agency.
I have quite a few jobs lined up.
