Home Instead Dubuque – Delmar, IA

Monday Mornings + Every Other Saturday | $16–$18/hr

Home Instead Dubuque is hiring an experienced Part-Time In-Home Caregiver to provide one-on-one care in Delmar, IA.

If you’re a professional caregiver, home health aide, CNA, or experienced personal care assistant looking for steady supplemental hours with a company that values relationships over rushed tasks, this may be the perfect fit.

At Home Instead Dubuque, we believe long-term care should be personal, dignified, and meaningful. We focus on turning everyday routines into real connection and impact — not just checking boxes.

Hands-on mobility and fall-risk experience are required.
