About myPlace Health myPlace Health was founded in 2021 by mission-aligned healthcare leaders and organizations that are committed to drastically improving health outcomes, quality and experience for vulnerable older adults and frail seniors. We specialize in providing value-based, comprehensive care and coverage for older adults with significant needs so they can thrive in the homes they love and in the communities they cherish. Our mission is simple: to enable older adults to live the independent lives they deserve. We pursue this mission through our myPlace PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) model, which provides seamless primary care, integrated health plan coverage, personalized social engagement, and customized services delivered in the participant’s preferred place. myPlace Health is building a mission-driven team that shares our passion for redefining the way older adults experience care as they “age in place” in the community. This is a unique opportunity to take on one of our country’s most challenging healthcare problems and join a fast-growing, dynamic team as we prepare to scale our mission to serve more markets. About this Role This is a wonderful opportunity for a mission-driven team player to make a real difference in the lives of frail and vulnerable older adults in your community. In this role, you’ll bring warmth, kindness, and compassion to every interaction—whether you’re supporting participants with personal care, accompanying them to appointments, or sharing a smile during a group activity. You’ll work closely with families, caregivers, and our interdisciplinary care team (IDT) to ensure each participant feels safe, seen, and supported, while also staying attentive to any changes in their health or well-being. \n What Does Success Look Like As Our PCA?

Be a Friendly Companion and Guide – Assist participants as they get in and out of our transportation vehicles and accompany them on rides or to offsite medical appointments as needed. Support Mealtimes with Heart – Make sure each participant receives the correct meal and offer a helping hand to those who need assistance with eating, always with patience and respect.
