This is paid care work, not a hospital job. You cook meals and run errands as a paid circle for caregivers. Families pay a package or hourly rate. Price recovery days because the emotional load is the overtime. A normal week is scheduled visits, written care notes, emergency contacts, and a backup person. You are not a nurse or therapist unless licensed. Keep a referral list. Training and insurance come before branding.
A calendar and liability awareness. First paid hours often 1–4 weeks for companionship and coordination; licensed roles take longer (BLS personal care / SCORE).
Each required material has a matching shop listing — photo, price, and a way to add it to the cart.
Training certificate
Training certificate booking
Training certificate booking. A booking handoff for the certificate the path requires (food handler, first aid, or the named course) plus fee notes. We get you to the class; we are not the certifying body.
Insurance
Liability insurance intake
An intake packet and a broker handoff for basic liability. This is filing help, not a bound insurance policy.
Simple notes system
Notes app seat
A notes-app workspace with a capture inbox and a weekly review template. Instant setup. This is software, not a paper notebook.
Transport
Local transit pass
A month of local transit (or a rideshare float of the same size) so a route job can move. This is fare, not a vehicle.
A rest protocol
Rest-week protocol planner
Rest-week protocol planner. A one-page rest protocol: what stops, what still ships, who covers. Planner files, not a retreat.
