MORE SPECIFIC: With staff supervision, caregivers (a.k.a. Personal Care Workers or PCWs) assist clients with services that include personal care (such as helping clients with bathing, dressing, and ambulation) and homemaking (such as doing laundry, shopping, and preparing meals).

They are able to reliably and effectively communicate with staff and clients, both verbally and in writing, and follow rules, directions, and policies.
