SAN DIEGO (PRWEB)

At a time when the nation faces a looming shortage of caregivers for older adults, one local company is making it faster and easier for families and care companies to connect with qualified caregivers in the greater San Diego area. The new online platform, CaregiverJobsSanDiego.com, eliminates the stress of having to sift through national caregiver matching and recruiting sites and unqualified candidates.

According to AARP, nearly 80 percent of adults 50 and older report a preference to remain in their own homes as they age instead of moving to a residential care facility. The US Census Bureau also predicts that by 2030, Americans 65 and older will comprise 21 percent of the population and by 2060, nearly one in four Americans will be over the age of 65. Experts also predict that next year, a national shortage of 151,000 caregivers will impact access to elder care and the shortage will increase to 355,000 by 2040.

“This data points to a critical need to make the process of finding a qualified caregiver faster, more efficient, and locally-driven for families, care companies, and caregiving professionals,” says Sterling Miles, creator of CaregiverJobsSanDiego.com. Miles is no stranger to the in-home care industry and serving the older adult population and their loved ones. He owns and operates a highly-rated San Diego home care company and has experienced first-hand the struggle of finding locally-based, qualified caregivers for caregiving job opportunities.

CaregiverJobsSanDiego.com allows families and care companies to easily post opportunities and communicate with top candidates through a secure messaging system. The company collaborates with a local network of CNA, HHA, medical assistant, and nursing schools, making it a magnet for qualified caregivers seeking employment in the San Diego area.

Caregivers can register for free and apply for multiple opportunities, with the ability to search for jobs based on location, shift types, schedule preferences, pay rates, and more. Care companies and families also can register for free, manage listings in one dashboard, repost openings to make them more visible, and contact applicants of interest for a minimal fee.
