Careers
You deserve a better place to care
The business of caregiving needs to change
At Bickford, we believe that we’re all made to love. But too often, senior living organizations get in the way of their caregivers.
- Bad Managers
- Disengaged Coworkers
- Underappreciated
- Overburdened
- Ineffective Systems
- Overworked
It’s time for something better.
We will not stop until we are the best place in America to be a caregiver
Caregiving is our devotion. Our life’s work. Hear from Bickford’s founding caregiver about our commitment to the craft.

Here are some highlights of why it’s better at Bickford.
Schedule & Pay Flexibility
App-Powered Scheduling
Your schedule is transparent, flexible, and in your hands. Know exactly when you’re scheduled to work, get push notifications for open shifts, and real-time updates whenever something changes.
Non-Traditional Shifts
Not every caregiver needs to work 8-hour days all the time. We offer two-hour and four-hour shift options to fit your busy lifestyle.
Daily Pay
Your employer shouldn’t keep your hard earned money locked away. Get on a path to financial wellness by avoiding unnecessary cash flow problems. We give you access to 100% of your net wages by the end of each shift.
Career Development Support
Student Loan Reimbursement
Supporting your growth includes supporting your education. We’ll pay back up to $3,000 of your student loans directly to your student loan provider.
World-Class Leadership Development
Our industry trains skills, not leaders. We take the road less traveled. We’re building the next generation of caregiver leaders through our partnership with Stagen Leadership Academy.
Start Your Career at Zero
Starting your career in healthcare only requires a love for people. We’ll give you the skills you need to take it from there.
Healthcare & Employment Benefits Support
Low Healthcare Costs
We provide a variety of comprehensive health plans to meet your family’s needs while keeping your costs low.

Being in healthcare has its benefits. Get significant savings on your prescriptions by using our in-house pharmacy.
Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for Childcare
You shouldn’t get taxed on the money you spend for childcare. With an FSA, we’ll help you pay for your childcare, tax free.
