Older adults and individuals with disabilities throughout San Bernardino County are in need of caregivers. The California Department of Aging estimates that in 2024 the population of adults, 60 years or older, was approximately 420,344 in San Bernardino County.
The San Bernardino County In-Home Supportive Services-Public Authority (IHSS-PA) is recruiting caregivers to provide personal care and domestic services that will allow older adults and individuals with disabilities to remain safely in their homes.
Caregiver applicants are screened and registered in the IHSS-Public Authority Registry database and matched with an older adult or disabled adult to deliver in-home supportive services. Some of the services authorized through IHSS are housecleaning, meal preparation, laundry, grocery shopping, personal care services (such as bowel and bladder care, bathing, grooming and paramedical services), accompaniment to medical appointments and protective supervision for the mentally impaired.
“Caregivers are invaluable to the health and well-being of our county’s older and disabled population,” said Roxanne Young, executive director of IHSS-Public Authority. “They provide essential in-home support services across the county, from the deserts to the mountains, allowing these individuals to age in place and stay safely in their own homes.”
IHSS-PA is recruiting caring and hardworking individuals to meet the needs of IHSS clients. You do not need to be a professional caregiver to sign up for the registry.
